3 Series aftermarket Ipod interface/Xenons

nocturne101 · 12-20-2009, 07:09 AM

A colleague at work is looking to get these fitted on his E90 M Sport 09 LCI. He's planning on getting it done by M Style (here in the UK) and wanted to find out a few things:

1) M Style feedback. How is the service etc? Any other recommendations?

2) Does fitting the Ipod interface require the dash to be removed or is just the glove box. He obviously doesn't want creaking/cracking noises due to poor refits. Will it work exactly the same as having a factory fitted usb interface with the ipod converter?

3) Xenons; There are a few options on the M Style website and not sure what to go for? there is the Xenon conversion and also angel eyes conversion..what's the difference? Do these include the bulbs or is that a separate purchase?

I have been told on another forum that it is not recommended to retro fit xenons on the E90s since these will go into reflector rather than projector headlights.

So any other solution?

Thanks!

I don't understand why there is no more Xenon solutions than this. They were legions with the E46. A big part of the cost is getting headlamps with projectors

There are few like this one

but general quality reported is low - OEM still the best.

your Xenon bulbs are D1S
