Or do what I did, if the rear panel on the light is removed the xenon bulb all wiring and balast can be fixed inside leaving only the standard bmw wiring on the outside and a completely oem look! Also mine was mot'd last weekend and it sailed through

Not looked for while....is there really enough rome to shove the ballast in?

Ps...my external mounted ballast after market HID passed it's MOT 2 months ago
