Moving my 335i to Finland - D1S vs D2S?

Hi,

would anyone have any information about the D1S and D2S headlights and what's the difference? It seems that the Finnish customs list only D2S as the accepted model and I wonder if I have to change? I have a 2007 E90 335i.

Thanks,
Sami

PS. I already got the rear fog lights to work by replacing the switch

(ajovalot (lähi- ja kaukovalot) tulee olla e/E-hyväksytty tai oltava merkinnöillä DOT sekä tyyppiä HB1 – HB5, HB7, D2S tai D2R olevilla lampuilla varustetut. Merkinnät löytyvät umpioiden lasista ja – pohjista.)

D2S bulbs are for use in previous models (e.g. E46). Newer cars like the E90 use D1S bulbs.

D2S does not have the igniter built on the back of the bulb like a D1S does.

Ok, thanks! It then sounds like they need to update their list, which may become an issue depending on the customs officer... D1S should be fine if the "older" D2S is...

I think I'll still have to ask them just to be sure...
