Will Lux H8 180's work with a 2011 335i LCI?

xhoul335i · 06-08-2017, 10:24 PM

one of the guys at a local shop told me they wouldn't but i'm reading online that they do fit?

I wouldn't trust a local shop over Lux's site. I also wouldn't have a local shop try to install them, unless you give them the Lux instructions and tell them to follow those.

Yes 100% they will fit correctly as that is what they are designed for. If you have any questions about them send me a PM or e-mail and i can help out.

I have them and they fit perfect. I also have a 2011 335i.

Why upgrade over the factory LED LCI halos?

No LEDs in the LCI e90s. All halogen from the factory.

I am trying to install the Lux H8 180's on my 10-2011 335i e90 with xenon, but the OEM connector of the bulb does not fit to the lux connector. Any idea's?

OEM bulb on the left, lux on the right

Please just pinch together the pins in the lux connector. You can do this with your finger, pliers, etc and it will work perfectly

Ok, I guess that could work. But is that meant to be like that? The connector is clearly different.

I will try this tonight.

The LUX aren't OE so it happens sometimes with aftermarket parts. Mine was the same way.
