2008 BMW X3 Custom Headlamp Assemblies

This product is an OE Replacement part and is approved for insurance collision repair. Automotive Lighting is the Magneti Marelli division with headquarters in Reutlingen, Germany, dedicated to the development, production and sale of automotive exterior lighting products for all major OEM’s worldwide. Xenon headlamps generate light based on the principle of gas discharge. The high voltage required to ignite the xenon gas: 20,000 volts: is generated by an electronic ballast. In bi-xenon headlamps, the low beam and high beam lights are generated with just one projection module, which is mechanically switched between low and high beams via a shutter in the headlamp. Since the light retains its color and intensity, the human eye perceives the illumination as unchanged. Compared to a halogen low beam, a xenon low beam is characterized by a brighter and more widely illuminated road. The range of the high beam is much greater, and the edges of the road are illuminated more clearly. Adaptive Lighting Systems (AFS = Advanced Frontlighting System) offered by Magneti Marelli make night driving and driving in bad weather conditions safer and more comfortable. The driver can rely on effective lighting of the road, of the roadside, of the bends and also of dark corners. The complete xenon system also includes a power wash system that keeps the headlamp cover lens clean so that the xenon light is directed onto the road and drivers of oncoming vehicles do not have to contend with added glare.

Product Features:

• 100 percent original equipment (OE) quality product
• Provides 30 percent more visibility and reduced power consumption than conventional halogen
• Integrated cleaning mechanisms ensure continuous cleanliness, allowing for optimized lighting without dazzling oncoming drivers

This product is an OE Replacement part and is approved for insurance collision repair. Automotive Lighting is the Magneti Marelli division with headquarters in Reutlingen, Germany, dedicated to the development, production and sale of automotive exterior lighting products for all major OEM’s worldwide. Halogen light sources have been used for vehicle lights and in both reflection and projection systems for all other major automotive lighting functions since the early 1960s. Halogen bulbs last longer than simple filament bulbs and are more efficient. Each one contains a tungsten filament, like a normal light bulb, but the gas inside the bulb is a special halogen mixture. This mixture combines with tungsten atoms as they evaporate from the glowing filament and redeposits those atoms on the filament rather than on the inside of the bulb itself, ensuring optimum light emission.

Product Features:

• 100 percent original equipment (OE) quality product
• A direct replacement for the part that originally came on the vehicle
