    Confusion about E36's

    Sorry to bug you guys but I am having a problem with finding applications for aftermarket cat eye or angel eye headlights for my 1999 E36 323i convertible.

    My understanding is that BMW changed from the E36 to the E46 in 1999 except for the convertible and maybe the coupe. I can't find any manufacturers that make a cat eye replacement that they say will fit a 99 E36.

    Most A/M lights for an E36 are listed for 92-98. My convertible is stuck in LA-LA Land when it comes to specking some parts. It's definitely an E36.

    My question to anyone is do you know for sure if any headlights listed for the 92-98 E36's will fit my 99 E36? They look exactly the same as my housings except they only have 2 top mounts instead of my stock 3.

    Thanks for any help...I couldn't find any specific threads covering this issue.

    Yes, the 98 headlights will fit your car. All headlights are interchangeable on the E36 unless you are looking for the terrible one piece headlights that incorporate the corner light, those will be specific to the sedan/coupe.
