Im disappointed as I love the xenon look.
Has anyone had them retro fitted yet?
I remember reading a post that someone has done it.

In any case, my opinion is that your dealer is talking crap. Why a genuine BMW part would void your warranty (we are talking retrofitting the OEM lights, right?)? Anyhow, it can be done (I have done it in my Z4), but it will cost an arm and a leg as parts are very expensive and require many labour hours to fit and re-programme the car.
