Canbus LED front indicator bulbs fitted

I don't know why these weren't standard on the LCI with its rear LED indicators.

Fitted these today as I had my wheels off to change the droplinks.



I'll get a night time video too as my iPhone hasn't caught it well, but you can see they're better than standard.

Thanks

Yeah, they look smart
If I didn't have to remove the wheel and the arch liner on my e92, I'd have done this too. From previous experience, I've had not much luck with LEDs. They've never been reliable, but if they're easily accessible, then its not too much hassle. Definitely not doing it on mine though

Not sure if this is any clearer.



I've now got white LED halos and LED front indicators.

It has been annoying me why these are not standard, as you say considering the rear led's. I want some for my E90 LCI - where did you purchase, link would be great.

Also what type of bullb are they? Do you have LED side repeaters too?

is what I used.

I didn't get round to doing the side repeaters (Didn't even check if they were LED actually) however I no longer have the car!
