I have replaced my cornering bulbs (E90 LCI), and they are most definitely H3's.

Nope! It is done through the hood! If you look at the top of your xenon headlights, you'll see a rubber seal that is installed on top of them. Simply pull up the seal (it comes off very easily) and you now have access to a compartment with three screws. Simply unscrew and replace.

The color is a pure, pure white (tint vs. colored glass makes a huge difference!) and I've had no issues with the extra draw from the bulb. Given that they're only on for (at max) 30 seconds at a time, it's nothing to worry about. I've kept tabs on my car, and it's taken very well to the bulbs.

Saved me a couple hours of confusion. It's not fair because if you have an E92, then you can change the bulb through the hood in a matter of minutes.
I'm still unclear on how to change the H3 bulbs though... Can someone explain?

Also, on the E90 LCI, you can change the bulbs by opening the hood. You don't have to take the wheel wells off. Follow the PDF instructions on the LuxAngelEyes.com website for the E90 LCI, and it explains very well how it is done. It takes a little time and patience, but it's not that big of a PITA.
