Interior Led lights are in.

Put all the interior LED lights in and am happy with how it looks. It's hard to get a good pic but the light is a nice modern color. Slight blue hue, which I like. Most of the lights are really easy to put in--the front dome was tricky but help on this forum proved invaluable with that. Would recommend for anyone wanting to freshen up the interior lights.

Much better brightness and white light - looks good! What brand did you go with?

Good picks, hard to show how bright they really are with a camera. I love mine.

Any chance you could reference the auction? I see them from $7-$40 on eBay, and the ECS kit is $99. Just want to make sure I get the right one (looking for a kit that replaces all interior lights).

Thanks, Adam.

Nice - I'd rather add ambient lighting in the footwells. Personally, I've never said to myself "I wish these lights were brighter" [just like I never said to myself in any car in 30 years, "I wish these wipers would adjust automatically"]

I don't think the lights are brighter in the lumens standpoint--they are white and come across as brighter compared to the stock yellow/warm tone. I definitely noticed at night the trunk being an improvement in visibility.

To me, the LED interior gives it a "newer" feel...

And I have to say that although I alwas thought of the auto wipers as a gimmick, down here in the South where the rain intensity changes so frequently while driving, it is convenient.

Yeah I agree..led..white light is in..look at new cars..the driving lights and interior. Everyone wants the bright white angel eyes. For a low price it's worth the update in my opinion.

Great in concept- in reality, those speeds never seem to make any difference, at least not in the logical world.

The auto wipers work perfectly in my 335i. Just the other day the weather kept going from light rain to full on down pour and back again all day long and the wipers never missed a beat. Not once did I have to take my hand off the wheel to adjust anything. Seems like a job well done to me.

I fing love my auto wipers.. Never understood the excessive hate.. I bet their problem is the big m power vinyl they put half way over the sensor looool

Thanks, Adam.
Consider shopping from trusted vendors. We offer the HPB interior kit, voted most popular on E90post for several years now.

Its a true bright and white, no hints of blue and starts at a competitive price to ebay kits, which seem to always give up some compromise of fitment, quality or brightness.

Depending on options and your preference there are 3 kits, Eco Kit, Factory Brightness or Max Output.

Max output includes custom CAD designed dome light housings with 24 LED and directional map lights.







More information is available in the vendors classified sections.
