Installed LCI lights this evening

BoondogUK · 07-08-2013, 01:46 PM

Well it was a lovely evening so I thought I would have a go at installing my new LCI lights into my pre lci.

I bought a set of LEDs from Ish @ Cyrstal Light and a set LED indicators (but these worked, looked great... but gave an error so are going back).

Took me 90mins from start to finish so was pretty pleased with that. I did have the advantage that I had taken my bumper off before when I installed the M3 rep so new where the tricky bits were and the tricks to getting them off.

Bumper off... And a view of the old halogens...

and now they are gone! Looked a bit scary about now and the neighbour gave me a worried look as I was searching for a wayward hex screw...

First one in... test to make sure it works!

And everything back together... this is a crappy pic, so will wait until the sun moves on a bit and get a better one soon!

Happy days!

Hehe... There always seems to be a next doesn't there!

Need some spacers for the rear and I keep toying with the idea of an audio upgrade...

Looks spot on, can't wait for my lights to get here! What are those LED bulbs like for the angel eyes? The photos make them look a bit green but I guess they are white normally?

They look a brilliant white colour... Guess its just my phone camera mixed with the shadow/bright sunlight that was half and half over the car at the time.

Would recommend the bulbs from Ish
