Help with changing Halogens (UK)
Hey guys
Currently out of the country, back this week looking to change these out. I dont want to have to dismantle the bumper to change them over so simple ones to drop in the back are fine What you guys rocking on here for the sides and the main H7s? |

I have used them for most of my full exterior LED bulb replacement, and they have been excellent. Note that I have no personal connection with them. There is one well-advertised company to avoid like the plague, but I won't post that on a public forum. The "simple ones to drop in the back" must be from someone who has never changed the dipped beams on an F30! |

Bumper is not necessary to drop.
I have full forward LED lighting in my halogen headlight and fog light housings. No bumper was ever removed in the process. Super cheap and easy DIY. |

I certainly didn't imply bumper removal. The comment about dipped beams was provoked by the unbelievably stupid way they have been built and the infuriating pain and trial of patience required.

Plug & play in the sense that they don't need anything special to install them (at least the H7s that I use), but you will probably find that CANBUS-friendly doesn't necessarily mean much with BMW. If you are able to code the car (E-Sys or Bimmercode) to delete hot and cold monitoring you should be fine and flicker-free. If you'd like a detailed list of what I bought and any issues, PM me and I'll be in touch.
