The Random E46/ZHP Question Thread

I bought the khoalty zkw lenses and did a refresh, too. Check my build thread; link in my sig.

Pair of lenses was $80 compare to $120 EACH for OEM.

Yep. And if they last a couple years and need replacing I would do it again. Very good value

The best option is probably new lenses, but idk if I would go with the khoalty/depo ones cause I've heard they pit/fade pretty quickly.

I have heard a mix of feedback about the khoalty. Aside from OEM, what would you recomend?

Really it depends on how much you're willing to spend, if the other guys on here have had no problem with khoalty I would probably just do that as OEM is so much more pricey to the point where it's not even worth it

There is no alternative to OEM besides khoalty, at least that I found.

I spent quite a bit of time looking. Fitment on the lenses seems to be spot on for me.

Fitment for the clear corners that I bought...weren't. Maybe about 95% accurate. Good enough for me, but maybe not for some.

Khoalty lenses: thumbs up
Khoalty corners: 95% thumbs up

Awesome! Thanks for the feedback!

Think of how long the lenses have lasted. Buying the OEM and charting out the cost per year makes the OEM seem more cost effective that way. That, and they're not made by DEPO.

Mine were 100% ruined when I bought the car. They probably needed to be changed after 75k. Considering the price difference ($80 vs $240), I was very willing to take a chance and try them out.
