E91 LCI front lights (xenon)

propshaft1 · 03-20-2021, 07:21 AM

My car came with 'white' halo front lights. One lamp has gone out, as shown below. I would like to return to standard/oem halo.

Please can someone let me know if H8 lamp/bulb is all that I need?

Thanks

From memory yes the halos are just H8 bulbs.

You'll need the bulb holders, as those LED's will be a replacement unit.

The OEM halogen angel eye bulbs & holders are like this...

Hi

Thanks for your reply. I will check. Hopefully the previous owner didn't get rid of it.....

I think this is the bulb for the non-xenon headlights. I have standard headlights and this is what i changed, when i was looking into it I'm sure the xenon took a different bulb and was much easier to change also.

Could be, mine are halogen, not sure if the xenons use a different bulb / holder, but realoem will know.
