E90 Pre LCI aftermarket xenon lights

Dcook0 · 02-01-2014, 11:34 AM

So,
I have an e90 with stock xenons and im looking to swap my headlights for an after market pair. All i can find are the Hallogen to Xenon conversion lights that will not work with a stock xenon harness.
Are there any units out there that will direct plug and play?
Will I get an error code from the adaptive headlights?

Thanks in advance!

OP what did you end up doing? I'm in a similar situation with stock dynamic adaptive bi-xenons

There aren't any as far as I know. Not many people would pay money to downgrade their lights, and the OEM xenons are far too complex for a a company to make a knock off of them, even for things like accident repairs/replacements.

You can replace it with an OEM adaptive xenon unit, or find a non-adaptive OEM xenon unit from another country (make sure it's not from a RHD country). Or modify your wiring so you can use an aftermarket headlight meant for halogen cars.

Depo's plug right in. All you have to do is code out AHL and code high beam to the inner light. Done no errors.
