This is correct. And vice versa. The ZKW lenses have small casting tabs that need to be ground down if you are fitting them to the AL housing.Originally Posted by stephenkirsh

Yeah holy shit thats a massive price difference between ALs and ZKWs. OEMBimmerparts shows the ALs at $73.50 a side and the ZKWs at $116.00 per.

Yup. Pretty lame, huh? No difference in raw materials. But somewhere along the supply chain a name brand gets worked in there and boom! 50% price increase lol

I was referring to the headlight covers. As in the plastic lens that goes around the entire headlight. Not the lens for the actual bulb. I have a ZKW headlight and they fit fine. No issues. If you notice on Khoalty's website there is no option to chose what headlight you have because they both are pretty much the same.

Ok, guys needs some help here. Will coupe seats fit/work in a sedan? I have a lead on some NB seats from a coupe and would like to not have to swap skins. ANy issues with the rails? I think I can ignore the side handles. Thoughts?
Just found this: http://www.e46fanatics.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=912984 Looks like it is doable with some minor surgery.
