By the way, there is a little panel in the fender liner that you can take out and gives access to the back of the headlights (was put there to make changing bulbs easier and so you don't have to take off the fender liner). It is held in by two push clips on top (push down and pull towards yourself), and then slides up and out and exposes all of the bulb doors.
@@InlineSixAuto negative, just did the upgrade myself… didn’t even move the tires. The angle is weird… but definitely can access both turn signal bulb and headlight bulb through the access panel
@@robertrodrigueziii5304 that would be an E90 chassis, which I am not familiar with but if you look at the front part of the fender wells there may be a small door that opens, again I'm not sure if they have that on E90s so you would have to look yourself.
I replaced the halogen bulbs on my F15 for both the turn signal and fog lights with LEDs. It was a $30 and 10 mins job to modernize the car a bit. Also, those dynamic/sequential LED is an Audi thing.
What part # is the actual turn signal bulb socket holder for halogen headlights? I'm not having any luck finding it for halogen headlights, all i come up with is for xenon headlights. I have a 2013 bmw 328i xdrive. many thanks in advance.
Upgraded to these same bulbs through this video and now I'm getting all kind of lighting malfunction, went and bought bimmercode + adapter to try and code it and still getting the malfunction plus flickering,( 2012 f30 modern fully loaded)
From what I've noticed, not all BMW react the same when it comes to changing electrical parts like bulbs. Some are just more sensitive than others and will react like yours. However some will not react at all. Mine still hasn't had any issues since installing these. Though it would flicker sometimes because of the voltage check but I just coded that out. You just happen to have one that didn't like the change. I would just reinstall your original bulbs and maybe try a different LED bulb.
No, if you put these, they wont have to be coded to function properly. However, the do flicker every so often because of the voltage check but you can code that out if you want
Usually that's the case. But sometimes when they're cheaply made they won't last that much longer or less than the filament bulbs. At least that's based from my experience.

Yes but from what I remember, that opening only gives you access to the low beam bulbs?
@@InlineSixAuto I just did the swap today and it's a little awkward to get to, but that was the way I did it.

Does this method also work for 2011 328i?

@François Parent Where did you find the bulbs for the front indicators? Is it the same led bulb as what he uses in the vid?
Where did sequential tail lights come from?
Sequential taillights became a signature mark of a Ford Mustang on the 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
@@teo2263Ali Express the bulb type is a PY24W. If you search there are dozens of LED available
@@teo2263i bought them on Aliexpress and its a PY24W type. Unlike many BMW drivers i use those new LED so they have to be replaced every 2 yrs or so
What’s the style of the rims? Very nice looking
Saved my ass thank you dude!

it depends on the bulb quality too
@@InlineSixAuto can you pls put up a video on how to code the Led turn signal. What you use and stuff? Thank you
my 2014 435i socket looked nothing like that and the LED style did not fit at all...hmmm oh well
where did you find the black/smoked reflectors? or how did u tint/paint them black. the stock orange ones gotta go lol
Got them from Amazon. Got them linked in the description!
Man, nice car, thanks. Can you send me the link for your lift kits
Why bother if you don't even use your turn signals?
what are turn signals
are they error free?
They are on mine
My halo bulb went out how do I change that can ypu do a video on that?
The angel eye bulb or the low beam bulb?
if I choose to put LED, must it be coded after replacement?
No, if you put these, they wont have to be coded to function properly. However, the do flicker every so often because of the voltage check but you can code that out if you want
@@InlineSixAuto after coding will it do the same?
@@valentingvl It will function with no flicker after coding
Did it give you a code on dash ?
noo
hi how to lock signal bulb with coding ?
you dont need to code anything
in my car it's like that when I turn on the turn signals, they flash quickly
Mine are the same way have you figured out why it does it
bad bulb replace it @@colefender399
what type of socket is it?
at what time in the video are you referring to?
@@InlineSixAuto 4:03
@@valentingvl The piece the bulb is sitting in?
@@InlineSixAuto yes, BA15s sau BAU15s?
@@valentingvl That was a part thats from the car.
Isn’t part of the appeal of LED bulbs the fact that they will last much longer than filament bulbs?
Usually that's the case. But sometimes when they're cheaply made they won't last that much longer or less than the filament bulbs. At least that's based from my experience.
Did you have any coding issues?
Nope. However I am noticing that they flicker every so often which I'm assuming is a voltage check. I think that can be coded out though.
