Finally Upgraded to LED Interior Lighting

Ever since we got my wife's F30 I've been on a hunt for an interior LED kit for my E90. There is just something nice about coming to your car at night and having a nice well lit interior. The stock yellow halogen lights leave a ton to be desired in that department.

Most kits seem to be pretty much the same in terms of features and pricing. I had a great experience with e92-lighting with my LED angel eyes so I thought I would give their kit a try.

Just like last time I dealt with E92-Lighting, Derrick was lightning fast on getting my order out to me. It was at my doorstep within 3 days of order placement. The kit consists of plug and play surface mount LED bulbs each corresponding with an existing filament bulb.



As I replaced the bulbs I decided to take comparison shots with my SLR using the same shutter speed and camera settings.

The results speak for themselves. There is at least a 2.5x increase in brightness in every application. The interior is now bathed with a nice pleasant white light. My wife even commented how nice and inviting the interior was after the upgrade. For such a modest amount of money I think this upgrade certainly has a big bang for the buck!
