Recommend HIDs instead, unless you see a specific LED option that you confirm has good light output.

Good luck and let us know what you end up with.

Well that blows. I've got a brand new passenger headlight I was sent as a replacement for my foggy one I'd consider selling if you're going to go that route.

[4EST]

thanks, but the insurance is going to cover the cost for a new pair of headlights, so I already reordered

My right turn signal isn't working. At first I could just hit the headlight a couple times then the led lights would turn back on. Now the leds won't go on. Would it be a short/wiring/ or the bulbs. Does anyone know which bulbs to buy? A link would be much appreciated! Thanks!

My initial guess is that it's a wiring issue, if a bump was able to sort it out in the past. Maybe check the wiring for any loose connections?

I suppose if the LEDs are wired up in series, a single bulb dying could cause all of them to not light up. But not sure how you would find the faulty bulb without testing each individually outside of the headlight.

Interested to hear other people's insights. I'm not an expert by any means.

This started happening when it dropped past 65 degrees and I'd have to hit the headlight for the leds to come back on. Anything over 65 it would work fine. This winter it finally just stop turning on

How do these compare to bavgruppe option? It seems like you can just buy the dtm rings and install in your oem headlights from my understanding of their products page on their site.

I baught a pair of rolling gears headlights thought it would solve all my problems with horrible stock halogen headlights. I love the DTM look DRL despite it being abit tacky in direct sunlight I can cope with that. My issue is the projectors them selves, why dont my projectors apear lit whilst on. Not just day, at night time. There is a beam patten how ever they do not apear lit to pedestrians and oncoming traffic. If i stand in front of my car looking at it dead on my projectors do not look lit unless i kneel and bend to like 30cm off the ground then it looks great. I dont understand ive being to 5 garages paid for alligning 5 times all garages do beam patten bit difderent all round about same but never do the projectors apear lit whilst looking at the car in front from any angle other than practicaly laying on the floor. I have tried HiD kit. Phillips bulbs and the ones they came with can some one please tell me what the hell is going on i dont get it. My friend baught some projectors off ebay for £7.99 and they apear lit up when on jesus christ. Any other car i see on opposite side a road had a full solid cirle of light inside there angel eyes or car that havent got angel eyes and just projector has solid whilte circle when on. Please help.
Ive seen mobillity schooters with better lights than this what is going on

Is this why my projectors apear not lit unless i bend down then it looks great? Do i need better projectors

Ditch that junk and go OEM LCI Halogens with AEs - million times better looks and smoother real OEM AE look, not that tacky discrete dotted LED rings lol in addition with blueish hue
Aren't you ashamed to drive with them - everyone knows those are cheap junk - no bueno on bmw imho
However, you are the boss dude, if that is what you want - enjoy

Thanks for replying it puts things in to perspective.
What if i have the headlight retrofitted with quality halos and bi xenon projectors. Ditch the junk and keep the surround.

Thanks

Also is it because the projectors are crap the reason they dont seem lit when i look at my car dead on unless i crouch down then it looks good? Is it just the projectors and not the headlight its self?

[Kharazmatik]

Just got my brand new set of these lights. Was super stoked to install them, just to find out one of the halos doesn't light up. Bummer. I've emailed the company hoping they will fix this.

P.s has anyone hooked these up with the automatic leveling?

So what do you see when you park up against a wall at night and your lights are on? Park say 2 yards or 2 meters away from the wall, how high up on the wall do you see the focus point of your projector? It really just sounds like your lights are aimed too low. Take pics and post them up.

Sorry to revive an old post but I need help.

I bought same headlight which came with manual headlight adjuster and another adaptor to connect to electric headlight adjuster.

Do I need to take out the motor from old headlight?

No but I'm trying to work out how it's done.
