E90 LCI facelift with halogen headlamps/angel eyes

Hi everyone

New to BMW's so go easy.

I'll be collecting a 2010 320d M Sport Business Edition saloon this Saturday and I'm really really excited

One thing I noticed coming from a 2009 Honda Civic EX GT with HID headlights is the BMW only has halogen headlamps and halogen angel eyes.

Just wondering which bulbs are best to replace these as I am not a fan of the yellow light they produce - otherwise the car was absolutely fantastic!

Thanks

Hi mate
You should be able to get led angel eye bulbs to make the angel eyes white and probably can get a decent HID kit installed for the headlights, just make sure the kit is canbus

Thanks mate.

I've got some LED angel eyes on the way from horizon leds, but I'm a bit confused about suitable HID kits.

Can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Just to clarify, the bulb to light up your halos is different from the bulb that light up your projector ( low beam)
