Looking at Ebay, even our base model non-adaptive headlights are going for like $1,200 per headlight. Crazy expensive

We need to find a hookup in Mexico lol

Hey guys

I bought some angel eye led headlights, with just putting them in not swapping over the modules the car does not want to recognize the headlights, even with coding. Is their still a possibillity that they will work ? Just swap the modules over and try coding them will this work ?

So, you swapped them , hooked up the wiring plugs , and what - you get an error message on the dash screen ?

I wish I was more help. Hopefully someone who has done a BMW headlight swap in the past few years can chime in.

Honestly, You could make a new thread in the General section where it would get way more views.

Reply for updates, I’m trying to do the exact same thing. I was too dumb to believe this is a standard feature and not needing hud and auto high beam. Turns out without “full led headlight” you only get a partial led light as standard.
