The BMW / Jetta Headlamp Conversion kit will greatly enhance the look of you 93-98 VW Jetta III. Using this kit you can add the dual round look to your jetta without replacing the hood or grill. The BMW Conversion Kit uses real US Dot Approved Headlamps found on 92-98 BMW III Series Vehicles. The BMW Headlamps use a 9006 and 9005 bulb, so you can easily add a xenon HID type bulb found here on the website.

The BMW Conversion kit is also available for purchase in seperate parts. If you happen to already have a set of BMW III Series Lamps you can add an install kit and eyebrows seperate from the complete kit. The install kit comes with everything you need to mount your BMW headlamps to the jetta's factory brackets and wiring system. Using the OKIXTREME install kit you won't even have to cut your wire harness or trim any of the original radiator supports. To mount the headlamp brackets you will need to drill six new holes which is made a breeze through the six self tapering bolts included with the kit.

TECHNICAL ISSUES: Eyebrows are highly recommeded with the conversion because without them you will have a noticable gap above the headlamps. The BMW Conversion kit uses original BMW headlamps, so the fit is not perfect, what you see is what you get. If you look closely you will see that where the headlamp meets the outer fender there is a noticeable gap, but it's the nature of the beast. You will have to decide if it's something you can live with. However, most customers are very satisfied because the conversion kit certanly will change the nature of your jetta. You'll be amazed at how many head you turn with this euro hero.

 Jetta III BMW Conversion Kit Brows Only

The eyebrows are the trickiest part of the conversion. Our eyebrows were custom molded fiberglass.  They were very durable and we had them custom made by body shop professionals. However, you may find a company that already makes eyebrows for the jetta that may be used for the conversion.  Below is a conversion install without the brows.  You can see why they are very important. You will also have to make custom brackets to mount the brows to your radiator support.
