I just did a search for 'chrome backed silver', these all appear to be hella's (which have smaller rings inside) - they will look very similar, but with larger rings and projectors (which looks much nicer, imo).

These headlights do have projectors, and they use H1 bulbs (included) - the city lights are just the high beams spliced into the corner lights - when you are driving with the headlight switch in the first position they are slightly on, like daytime running lights, as are the angel eyes. When you hit the 'high beam' switch they get full power and you have brights.

They're not, the picture I emailed you is with the brights on (the brights overpower the blue headlights when they're on) - the low beams on off and on the outside, which is why you see the blue light there. With city lights on both rings would be visible, with only slight light from the inner bulbs (the high beams).

Here is a better explanation of the install than the one I PM'd you:

This was one of the first projects I attempted myself on my last M3, and it was very easy.
