How hard was it to open up the headlight? Which LEDs did you use. Do you have a link by any chance? Would appreciate any tips. Thanks! |

hello knob,
Look what I found on board a series of owners in Germany, where a member: http://www.1erforum.de/tuning/ad-tun...-33153-25.html I did my account and I read this topic through google translator and I already have an idea of changing the lights, but I expect warm weather, because still snowing and the temperature is below -3 degrees C all the best of all daniel

Hey Knob, can I get those 3 SMD LED bulbs you are using with CANBUS so I don't get any errors? For my '09 I tried to check on eBay but no joy
Just need 2 for the parking lights |

Knob, is that group buy just stock DEPOs or does can you include extras? Also what would you say about the "moisture" issue with the headlights? Is it an issue with your set or just with people opening the casings?
I don't read German so... Also what is the LEDs with CANBUS?? I am not familiar with that term but it cancels error codes on the BMW computer? What LEDs did you use? Might be good to start a group buy over here too. Might get double the amount of people and up to 125$ off! For those interested in Group Buy on German forum here is the translation.... Quote:

E90 I sent a PM to Tom in charge of the group buy about international shipping.. Will post back here rough price to east coast.
I would love to have HID upgrade to these as well as LED upgrade but I have no DIY.... Knob do you have a DIY yet of those LED upgrade? |

Knob could you repost a somewhat detailed install on those LEDs. I am slightly confused how they go into the existing housing of the DEPO lights?

Okay cool! Yah, TomZ told me that he would contact AD-Tuning about shipping and what-not. But unfortunately I am sure they don't ship because of the 70+ Euro cost which ends up costing about the same as DEPOs over in the states with the discount...

I finally got around to installing the German Ebay Depo LEDs mentioned a few pages back. I must say, they are a 500% improvement over the stock depo bulbs. Do they look as bright as the new BMWs? No. There is still some trail-off as the light gets further away from the bulb. But overall it's not at all bad.
These pictures are real close to what you'll see in the real world. I played with the flash and f-stops of my camera until it captured what my eyes see. The color in my pics is very accurate. At night, they look very intense. During the day - not bad at all, especially considering the price and the fact that I didn't have to open up the housing. Plug and play, and they throw no codes. One thing I noticed is the LEDs are a bit longer than the stock bulbs, so the end is pressed right up against the backside of the angel eyes.. I really had to push them into the housing to get enough friction to hold them in place. It's really easy to pull the plug back out of the housing. |
