Help With RD Angel Eyes

BRGmatthew · 09-21-2009, 05:31 PM

Hi Ive been trying to search for a DIY for RD Angel Eyes for an 09 e90 328i i just got it brand new like a week ago. This is the one i bought because they said its just plug and play. But i keep reading and some say that thats not the right one and some say it is. So i just want some feedback from some of you. I have stock angel eyes and i have stock halogen housing. So any help will be great thanks.
Heres the picture of how the bulb looks like

That is right

Plug the bulb into place as any DIY tells you, then connect the wiring from the car in the the big hole type thing (I'm not good at describing things)

The halogen headlights use a different fit bulb so that will not be a direct install.

How exactly do I install it then? And which bulb would be the right one and how do u install that one?

these are for e92 only. if you have halogen, i am guessing you have an e90? these are the wrong bulbs. unless you have a lci e90 you do not have angel eyes.

im new to bmws so i dno if i have lci or prelci. but i just bought the car a week ago brand new from the dealer. and i do have stock angel eyes. and the guy i bought the bulbs from said he bought them specifically for his e90 09 328i. if these are the wrong bulbs then which are the right ones?

Long, the E90 LCI models with halogens do have factory angel eyes but they are a different type of bulb.

The RD units the OP has only fit the H8 type headlights.

What bulb type is it for the halogen headlights?

It looks like 808E90 found a way to retrofit the RD Angels with LCI Halogen headlights in the following thread...seems like it may be a quick/easy workaround?? Just offering options since I sold him the RD units and really feel bad about it.

If that doesn't help, I sent you a PM. We can work on something to get this rectified so you're not holding the bag on these RD units that you can't use.

I'm actually working to create a LUX solution for the E90 LCI Halogen headlights.
