LCI Headlights

I am need to replace my halogen headlights on my PRE-LCI E90. Since I hear it's a PnP situation, I am considering LCI headlights.

ECS have them for around $750. Are there any cheaper places?

Thanks in advance.

if you're looking at OEM, order from getbmwparts.com…their price will be hard to beat and they'll let you know everything you need for the conversion

Get them from the forums. Got mine for 500 but you can get them a little cheaper than that

I believe so. Those are oem headlights, but I'm not sure if valeo is the only supplier.

So, I am about to order these. I am sure these have Angel eye DRLS(?) These should be just plug and play on my PRE-LCI non-HID car? Just want to be confirmed before ordering.
I can also move the bulbs from old to new without and issues?

Thanks in advance

in terms of physically installing it's PnP .. but I can imagine theres a little bit of coding that needs to be done.. I could be wrong.. def do a little more searching before you pull the trigger.. or you could just get your current headlights modded.. plenty of shops can really do some cool things with them probably for less money than a pair of lci headlights. btw check out the lci tails too that's def worth it

They should not require any coding and the wiring is plug and play.

You will only need coding if you want the angel eyes to run as your DRL instead of your high beams (since you have an 08, your FRM supports this). The angel eyes will still turn on when the low beams are on without coding.
