  • Replacing the daytime running lights on a 2009 BMW 135i E88 convertible.
    As requested here is the link where I purchased the lights. I haven't had any issues with them since I installed it (Apr 2020 update).

    Fantastic review, i just purchased my 17 year old daughter her first car, an E87 Hatch, with original factory lights. Frankly they are terrible so I will be changing to LEDs, Ive watched around 50 RUclips instruction reviews on how to do the swap on. I found your review the most detailed & simply to understand. Thank you very much for posting. Love from Sydney Australia

    taking those covers off was tough! on the passenger side light (128i) my dad and I had to really push on the AC tubes that are on the interior side. We didn't break or bend them. I also had to loosen the top three headlight assembly screws (one is hidden down a hole close to the fender) That let me move the assembly fwd a bit. On the drivers side, I had to undo two of the airbox screws to get it out of the way (didn't totally remove it) thanks for the video!

    Call my crazy but isnt that the headlight bulb you changed there? Doesnt seem like the DRL to me

    I’m getting an adaptive headlight warning light immediately after installing these. Do these cause that? Or is the ballast somehow interfering with the adaptive headlight functionality

    Putting those damn headlight covers back on is almost impossible! I had to take my whole bumper off so I could remove the damn headlights to put the covers on . Damn you BMW!

      Yep. I had to take the wheel off and that big plastic panel in the wheel well to get to the damned thing. Bit easier than taking the bumper off maybe. I learned about that method when I had to change out my ballast. I was amazed to find myself behind the light with lots of access, and to see that the bottom of that cover wasnt sitting right. Which probably why my ballast went bad, because if you dont get that cover on right water gets in there. Awful design imo.

      No issues and they still work great :)! I definitely recommend changing them if you want the look of the white vs. the amber lights. Its a cheap and easy fix

    I know i hate touching stuff, but in this scenario i think you should've taken your gloves off and it would've been easier. Good job tho, i can actually put mine on, well at least i think so.
