It's been about eight months and they still look great. It's too bad BMW stopped allowing us to simply swap out the lenses like I did with my old Pre-LCI E46, now it's required to bake the headlight, clean out the black sticky sealant, reseal and then hop on one leg while singing an Octoberfest tone. Don't ask to see a video, it wasn't pretty or entertaining or instructional.
How about when BMW offered removable glass lenses aka row E36 lights. now that was convenient.
