Question about HID Foglights - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

AcExSpades · 02-23-2012, 02:54 AM

I'm confused about what bulb to get. I have an e92 Mtech front bumper.

Now, I've heard that H11 is preferred if you have an Mtech, H8 if you don't.

While looking over at High Performance Bulb's website, they say that H11 are for E90 and H8 are for E92. Can anyone please advice with the correct plug?

get whatever bulb is proper for your application. the HPB recommendations don't cover all the model years and package options. if that bulb guide listed above says that you need a certain bulb for an e92 mtech bumper (pre LCI and LCI might use different bulbs, might not, if you have LCI, do more checking!) then order the kit with that bulb from HPB
