4) Car Models - All cars that "fit" into a certain model year range are applicable regardless of features or content unless otherwise specified below.

5) Clear Film Protection - It's a good idea to purchase some protective film to keep your headlights looking new if you are in a windy, dirty, or often grimy part of the country. Or, if you do a lot of night driving or country driving where debris can damage your headlight. The film will not protect from larger rocks or accidents

• 6000K - Pure white with slight hints of blue
• 8000K - Pure white with significant blue 

Benefits of Bixenon Option:

• Requires minor tap to high beam wires on some cars, on others, the bixenon function is completely transparent.
• BIXENON FUNCTIONALITY - Does your car not currenlty have Bixenons? No problem, this application gives you a setup that is just like the factory bixenon feature without reprogramming, errors, rewiring, or new LCM required.
• 2X better beam pattern (as compared to most OEM applications and aftermarket projectors) - beam pattern is wider, deeprer and the pattern is sharp and defined.
• Small footprint for easy installation - dimensionally just like stock and aftermarket headlights, doesn't require any custom fitting.
• Incredible improvement in night visibility - far better light pattern and prism - see photos above.
• Works with All Auto Leveling and Adaptive Lights

Advances in lighting technology have improved the quality, clarity, and pattern of newer projectors that are currently being installed inside newer headlights for the very best lighting and road visibility. Now, you too can take advantage of the improvement with an OEM style system that dramatically improves upon an already well designed and quality system of the standard headlights offered here. 

While a little more expensive and certainly not for everyone, the Bixenon retrofit is completely seamlessly integrated into the housing, retaining full adjustability, auto-leveling controls, with no additional space requirements for install.

The major benefits of the Bixenon retrofit are greater intensity, clarity, and dramatically improved light patterns with no associated glare.  And, the major benefit of going with our solution is a fully integrated setup without having to purchase and pay extra for other services. 

A simple chart below illustrates the quality differences between the various solutions:

Your Current Halogen Lights = Black and White TV
Projector Halogen Lights = Color TV
Projector Xenon Lights = LCD TV
Projector Xenon 50W Lights = LCD LED HD TV
Projector Xenon Bixenon Lights = BlueRay LCD HD TV

SUMMARY:

Why ZKW?

• the cheap alternatives have optics and lenses and do not project light as evenly 
• the internal wiring inside the headlight is poorly managed and may fray or damage over time
• many cheap lights have plastic lenses that melt over time
• cheaper plastics that with wear and time will degrade and fade or crack.
• Greater ability to get Bixenon projectors installed.

Install Tips:

• Change fuses to 10A and/or 15A (for the E36 those are located in spots 11 and 12 in the box)

• PRETEST the bulbs

• Mount the controller UNDER the headlights on a flat, dry and vibration free surface - BUMPER area

• Use existing 9006 connections to connect directly

• Ensure secure connections to and from the headlight.
