They are great. 
I loved my Audi, and I loved the AFS (Adaptive projectors that turned with my steering angle)
but when I pick up my next Audi I'll be doing a retrofit in them.
Id like a Quad Bi-Xenon, But I'll settle with retrofitting either fxr's or another projector in there. While my 2006 Audi's were nice, they lacked Light output and sharpness.

I got tired of dark back roads and while I'll be doing a Bi-Xenon Retrofit
I wanted more. I'll get a trim strip for where the license plate use to be.
Obviously it's the beater, not too worried about looking pretty.
Will be used to hopefully spot deer/animals before smacking into them...
23" 144W total, 3W usa Cree LEDs 11,500 LUMEN Spot/Flood Combo bar....
After hitting two deer on the damn back roads we have here, if
I can see their eyes for any warning I'll be happy.
The 1st one I hit in my audi did 11,500 in damage. Insurance fixed it but still...

$89 shipped. 2yr warranty.

Would I be a dick to flash those stupid 10,000K Deep blue hid users. :naughty:

Alright so I drove to Louisville a couple days ago and picked up some
HEATED black leather powered seats for the E36.
Things have been slow on the car. Just other priorities.
I'm picking up a Ford Explorer Tuesday so when I get that cleaned up I'll
finally be able to start really working on the e36.
I'll start by striping the interior and prepping it for the new black intr I got.
New wires for stereo, wire in new harness for the powered and heated seats
and a few other very small projects like a couple of USB Ports for charging
electronics at 2.1amp (What my Galaxy S4 Rapid Charger is rated)
I need to work on the heat since winter is near, the heat just doesn't work hardly
and the climate control doesn't blow the air where it needs to.
I am considering swapping to the digital climate control and installing a new heater core and being done with it all. It'll cost a couple hundred... But probably
worth it if I plan on keeping the car and driving it to keep the miles off the explorer.

I got the seats, thanks.
Hold off on looking for that stuff because i'm not ready to buy so it won't matter. I do appreciate it though!
Yeah I have a set of non heated black leather seats but they have been spoken for
already.
Next time, I won't source oem heated seats I'll just buy a heated seat kit off of ebay. Thinking about it, I spent 200 for oem heated seats that are 20yrs old... Why? lol....
I found these and I'm going to install them in the explorer I'm picking up, and
maybe even my wifes car for the price... 75 bucks for both sides, harness and
even a nice looking 1-5 setting switch for them...

another bump, wtf.
So Sunday I'm selling all the Black E36 interior I've been piecing together including the dash I swapped in, I'll be pulling it back out.
Might have someone interested in the tan interior thats in the car.
If so I'll sell it to, fuk it. Then decide what I'm going to do to the car.

Need to do something with this damn car.
Leaks oil from the valve cover so I bought that gasket. Just need to install it.
I need to see where else its leaking oil from.
Might start piecing it back together this week and start driving it again.
Main issues are Driver rear window wont roll up and no 2nd gear.
Shocks are pretty shot and the body harness in the back is broke where the trunk opens and closes; common issue.
Might need to make a junkyard trip this week and try to get some stuff. Just small stuff
like window switches and little shit.
Thought about getting some general bi xenon projectors and doing a budget ass retrofit.
But we'll see.
