335is.
I think the regular 335i still uses the regular kerosene lantern lights.

I'm pretty sure the 2011 are still running a 35 watt halogen h7(8) bulb....

Bummer, I bet the LED would only use 2-3W

Then again, Ive seen LED setups that use a resistor to get the wattage down... and in that case, the draw is probably the same as the incandescent...

no is a great answer, how about some details?

So there is no resistor taking the voltage from 12-14 to whatever the LED uses? How is the voltage shed? Is it a group of LEDs that can natively take 12V by their design?

2011 1 series do not have LED angel eyes. We picked up our 2011 128i and M3 at the Welt 3 weeks ago. The 2011 M3 also does not come with LED angels, only the 2011 E92/93 non-M have the LEDs.

Anyone know if my 2011 E90 LCI can have the Coupe Angel Eyes retrofitted?

I passed a 2011 Convertible the other day and got jealous lol.
