E90/E91 angel eye headlights

Phil99z · 02-06-2015, 04:18 AM

Hi all,

I recently picked up my E91 and I'm over the moon with it. Would love to have some angel eye headlights and was looking at Style but I've been looking around and found these ones which are cheaper in comparison:

Just wondering if anyone has tried these and what they are like. Also will they need coding or is it just plug and play?

Cheers!

Phil,

what about these?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-3-SERI...ht_2783wt_1384

i think this is possibly the closest youll find to OEM. and AFAIK they are plug and play headlights.

Phil99z · 02-06-2015, 04:39 AM

Cheers for that mate. Will check them out and also on how to install them too!

tom619 · 02-06-2015, 05:57 AM

Wow those headlights look amazing.

Like the OP I'm wondering how easy they are to install?

I have a 2010 E90 LCI with halogens.

I've had a look on YouTube and also found a pdf instruction sheet too. It looks straightforward enough but think I would rather have someone who knows what they are doing to do it for fear of broken clips or trim. It's a bumper off job though.

I see MStyle can fit lights purchased from them but it is a bit too far for me to travel though. Would prefer someone local if possible.

Best is to get genuine lci but if you have xenon they cost fortune.

PAIR OF CHROME PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS WITH TWIN ANGEL EYES FOR A BMW 3 SERIES E90 4 DOOR SALOON AND E91 4 DOOR TOURING 2005-2008

Phil99z · 02-06-2015, 04:53 PM

I have a 2007 pre-Lci. Anyone got these headlights?

Reece · 02-06-2015, 06:26 PM

Do like them black projectors, the chrome ones are a bit too chrome for me.

On the ebay ad for the black ones it says from 2008 but i might be wrong, i can fit lci halogens or xenons to my pre lci so surely these would fit aswel?

Been looking at retrofitting bi-xenon projectors and led ae's into my halogens, although will be near on a 1 off its alot of work and money involved

I'd just get LCI Halogens, Aftermarket headlights are always naff and don't work properly.

Do all LCI headlights have angel eyes? Even the halogen ones?

Digitalize · 02-08-2015, 10:46 AM

Yes.

As above, yep. I have a pre-lci e90. I simply swapped the lights for a pair from ebay of LCI lights, and at the same time bought new angel eye bulbs which I installed before putting the new light units in.

Before:

After:

Lights were £250 from ebay, just look for a second hand pair. Easy job to swap, plug-and-play.

jackstrath · 02-09-2015, 02:02 AM

on the topic of angel eyes , anyone put them in there fog lights ?

dy63 · 02-09-2015, 03:51 AM

i wouldnt pay 250 for lci halogens to be honest. id rather get them aftermarket xenons!

Xenons aren't plug-and-play though, require some re-wiring, these do not, and are OEM.

borinous · 02-09-2015, 05:13 AM

thought the aftermarket xenons where plug and play also?
