#190021 I don't think bmw came out with bi-xenons in 98. Not sure wat you are asking...people usually snag the bi-xenons out of bmws to retrofit into special eg housings.

#190045 Certain 3 series cars from 1999 and up have the bi-xenon with the reflector flap that flips inside the headlight.

join the forum, read that section till your eyes bleed if you want to know all there is for retrofitting.

They labeled me the HID mater on this site, but i only have a mere 3 retrofits, and 5 HID kit setups under my belt, the guys on that site make me look like a newb even after 5 years of HID usage lol
