Good video Brian , I remember doing mine on my f31 330d. The biggest issue is removing the torque screws from the bottom of the headlights. This was a pain in the ass , due to the poor design of the retaining nuts. The new lights are a lot better though, shame Depo didn't make them a full led set up.
So I just bought a '17 330e and I have been slowly upgrading MMI, Screen, and Grill/Headlight aesthetics to match the "Elektroauto" theme for my plug in HEV F30. Yalls videos have been so encouraging and instructive. Literally would not feel the same about my first modded car without @KiesMotorsports. Huge ups to the whole team and your sponsored motorists. Please keep em coming!
Me and my father in law tried this without a lift. Doable but very hard and took us a few hours to get just one of the screws that holds the actual headlight in after you take down the wheel well liner. Ended up taking it to my local mechanic and had him do it in a few hours. He noted that it was a challenge but the results were definitely worth it. What halogens did you end up using as I notice the white ones included with the depo lights aren't too bright.
Same here I have a bmw 330e 2017 with damaged headlights, I cannot find any aftermarket headlight that will go onto a 2017 330e- OEM lights are costing too much so I am looking for alternative any suggestions?

Thanks for the video. Very helpful. Ok, my bottom two bolts on each headlights were almost impossible to remove. The stupid lock nut kept moving. Even when I used vise gripes, the stupid bolt kept moving. After lots of elbow grease was able to get three off but the fourth one even broke my vise grip. So I cut the stupid screw off. When I installed the new headlight assembly, I got rid of that stupid bolt setup and went back to the simple bolt and nut.
Let me share a 1+ year experience review on these: Good: - The look, totally worth the upgrade. Don't think twice if you're considering this one. - Much better visibility especially at night and in rain. - Value for the price. - No error codes or anything. Bad: - I decided to use morimoto 6000k xenon bulbs over provided h7 bulbs (you don't need the relay, but need amp igniter and connect to h7 port). H7 white bulbs have a tendency to go yellow over time. You can already see the yellow tint in the video. - To replace high beam bulbs, kinda need to remove the bumper to access. - Headlight height and position adjustment tabs are very flimsy, I need to keep on tweaking them here and there every few months. - I don't know why they left high beams without projector lens but anyway, high beams in my case lights up literally everywhere. I wouldn't want to be driving on the opposite side.
Thank you for posting this !! As I am getting ready to install. I had a question. Once the headlamp is installed. "How do you change the high beam bulb, and what you are saying is the conclusion that I came to. WOW, how painful. Now I have two questions, what light bulb should I install that will last the longest. Is there a way to make the headlight height position adjustment more fixed so that you are not needing to adjust so frequently?
When adjusting the alignment nut (part #2080646) don't extend it too far out otherwise you could do the opposite of what Brian stated and your lights will be pointing too high and blind oncoming drivers and in addition you could fail your next car inspection.
I love how you guys had to "wing it" during the install because that's usually how custom installs work. My wife hates the beamer so I'll need someone else to help with the bumper. Lol, great video.
Sick video . Is there any chance you can make a video for coolant hose, water pump , thermostat refresh ? Can’t find any good guides for them. Also a good Valve cover gasket video would be sick as well! Always love the work Brian and team ! Y’all are probably the only reason my car is mint right now with all these preventive maintenance
Can u please tell me how to replace the passenger side low beam headlight.. I watched your vid but on my 320i 2017 I don’t feel no clip . I know how to access the bulb just can’t get it out
This was conveniently uploaded when I'm seriously considering buying these Depo lights... Also, Brian every video you post you look more and more like Thor
I have the same headlights. I moved to a 55w HID from the retrofit source. Only downside with this DEPO housing is... you have to remove the headlight to replace the high beam. They for some reason moved the access hole to the side from the top.
Would it be possible to drill an equivalent hole with a hole saw and plug the back with the piece you out by attaching it to a backer plate and sealing with headlight glue? I assume it’s either a clip or screw on which should be easily movable with some creativity
Admirations for the channel! However important question - how do these DEPO perform at night? Are they better than the OEM halogen? I used them in the past - 15 years ago and they were worse than OEM halogen. How is the situation now? I am very tempted but the result keeps bugging me... An answer or even some photos will be much apreciated! Cheers!
I realise your comment is from 9 months ago but if you've not took the plunge it's totally worht it! The stock halogen lights on the f30 are simply put abysmal. I recently upgraded mine to Xenons and the difference is night and day. Definitely worth it.
Awesome video! I was wondering if you can make a DIY instal video on a bayoptiks headlight upgrade, on an f80.I think that would be so sick! Just an idea and it would be a great content for you! Thx!
Anyone please help,.does it show any error n the dash as the old daytime running light will be left unconnected? And where does the new led angel daytime running lights getting the power from? Thanks in advance
Hey gents how are the light output performance at night on the road ? From my understanding projective headlights and LED do not put out a good output on the road, they look good but are really not that bright compared to a set of HID's in a projective headlight assy.
I recently had some genuine led headlights retrofitted to my f30 but find that the beam faces down too much so visibility isnt the best. I came here looking for answers that I appear to have found with this adjustment bracket at 9:04. Would I be able to access these and be able to adjust by removing just the wheels and arch liners? Thanks for the video brother
Hello, I have a 2015 328i Halogen model, mistakenly I ordered Xenon projector setup for my car with all HID bulbs, ballast. I would like to know if those will work on my Halogen model?
I am going to let my bmw 320i F30 stoped for around 10 months in my garage, due a business travel. Can I let the battery disconnected? Will be any issue when I reconnect it?
Will these fit a f32 coupe? If not do you or anyone have a recommendation for some aftermarket headlights for the F32. I’ve been looking for ages and can only find OEM headlights

Am I the only one in the comments that’s stoked/surprised it’s freaking Kerry Getz?
Way better look on the headlights... 🔥🔥. Like the intro and the shirt.. Kiesmotorsporst!!👍

Y’all need a 2016-2017 option
Check Bayoptiks
Facts I can’t find them anywhere.

Yup and factory ones are 1k each
If anyone found some, hit me with the link
Hey Brian...a video on upgrading from the halogen bulbs to LED or HID on these lights....please.
Easy pull the halogen bulbs out. And put in the led. Do some google search. Easy project to do. Take like 15 mins

The new intro is so good.

If you want to protect your wheels even more, put a piece of shrinking plastic insulator on the bolt guide/hanger and heat it up
Please tell them to make some for the 2 series.
New intro is 🔥
Says they r sold out? Is there going to be a restock of these

is there daytime running lights?
@@emerGenZ_ it’s the halos
BMW Jesus is killing it. New headlights look awesome.
remember to adjust them with a specialised measuring device
I'm loving the new logo Bryan! And LED headlights ona BMW is a must, if you don't have them, doesn't look like a BMW at all
Are these discontinued because I don’t see them available anymore! 😢 just my luck cuz these are the best I’ve seen
Depo light ! This is the 2nd or 3rd depo headlight video 🤣 kies is the best bimmer channel
I would highly recommend the sylvania zevo bulbs with these. Extremely good forward focused light, fanless and easily available!
When adjusting the alignment nut (part #2080646) don't extend it too far out otherwise you could do the opposite of what Brian stated and your lights will be pointing too high and blind oncoming drivers and in addition you could fail your next car inspection.
Do these fit on a 2016 328?????
How about about showing a video where the adaptive headlights are coded out with Inpa.
next make non budget friendly best headlights (custom ones) and then make f32-f82 body conversion (as close to original widebody as possible)
I love how you guys had to "wing it" during the install because that's usually how custom installs work. My wife hates the beamer so I'll need someone else to help with the bumper. Lol, great video.
I wanna get my car kies built 🥺
bmw wanted $1400 just for left housing and then another $1400 for right housing. go through kies get both for little under $700 such a blessing
Awesome, informative videos and awesome f30!

Hey so I have a 2016 328i f30 would these fit on it? If not what’s the difference?

Dude same
You guys revamped the logo and intro. I love it.
What the story behind the new logo?
Can u please tell me how to replace the passenger side low beam headlight.. I watched your vid but on my 320i 2017 I don’t feel no clip . I know how to access the bulb just can’t get it out

Also, Brian every video you post you look more and more like Thor
Have you bought it? Can you give some feedback please?
@@rafmargaryan2569 i’ll lyk after i install them
What is the total time to do this
Can these go onto the lci late 2015 model
I have the same headlights. I moved to a 55w HID from the retrofit source.

With regards to the original drl’s will removing the bulb and tying them out the way not throw a light on the dash
What is the M3 style bumper he has in the car? It does not looks like GoodGo one
The Legend... Mr Getz
when will you guys have more in stock. I've looked at your website but says discontinued.
When I’m about to order. Do I leave quantity at 1 or 2 😬😬 always gets me. Not sure if 1 counts as a pair or single
i’m trying to figure that out to bruh
1 quantity it counts as a pair
If it was only left or right (one light) you’d have to select if you wanted the left or the right, so it must be a pair :)
Very nice upgrade. And nice Kies logo too!
What Kind of front bumper is that? Looks really Great!
Should try to make a quick video of how to change the halo bulb on a stock f30 headlight 👀
Hey Kerry - do a kickflip!!!
Had oem angel eyes but I got in a accident about a year ago & I honestly think ima get these this year lol
Hey Brian, if I already have the xenon and one of them goes bad, can these be used as a direct replacement?
No
i think you can code it to work
No errors on the bus with these headlights? Sometimes they show a light malfunction warning on the dash when LED lights are added
Wow Kerry Getz ! One of my favorites skaters growing up watching his Habitat vids good stuff Brian
wow I thought I recognized him from somewhere!!
hi i'm watching in south korea
thank you for your information
This is so freaking nice ! I wish they had a conversion for e LCI E90 just like this
Best way to change the high beams ? When they are out

Love all that super-cool fist bumping.
