I've always thought that the stock zenons were amazingly disappointing for such a complex lighting system, so I am keenly interested in this thread.

would you guys say that the Osrams are the preferred set? It seems that may be the case if they have a whiter light.

Also, re replacing the headlight covers - if its required because the gasket is likely worn and won't properly seal up again, can just the gasket itself be replaced - or does one really need to get new doors? Just wondering if the doors with gaskets are stupid expensive, which is common with many BMW parts.

Lastly, owing to the greater light output of the Osrams in particular compared to OE, would there be a risk that these could damage the headlamp assembly or "burn" the clear lens?
