2011 E90 (with M-Package) Fog Lamp Bulb Help!

Hey All!

Newbie needing some help!

I am looking for the correct FOG LAMP BULB type for my car - 2011 335i (E90) with M-Package.

Some have told me H8, some say H11 and even some say 9008. Unfortunately, my darn manual does not state the correct one. I keep getting mixed messages from posts here as well, so I really need some help.

Can someone with expertise on this shed some light? Maybe owners of my same car with the M-package? I am eager to purchase replacements and afraid I might order the wrong one and then send back to seller.

HELP PLEASE! Thanks in advance!

E90MIA, Thanks for answering. Now I feel better but at the same time a LOT more confused. How did you know the bulb was 9006? Did your manual say 9006 or was that the bulb that you pulled out? What brand bulb did you get btw?

I purchased GP Thunder 7500K's 9006's from e92-lighting. He guided me through everything. He told me specifically which angel eyes, which fogs, and which corners would work. Let me know if you need anything else. When I had to find out which bulbs to order i was equally confused.

Awesome. Thanks! E-92 Lighting huh? How was your buying experience with them? I saw some posts which had negative reviews and to stay away from this vendor. I assume you weren't one of them. How long did it take you to replace your lights?

Yeah saw those and ordered from him despite those. I have ordered from him maybe 2-3 times maybe and everytime i received what i ordered 2 business days later. And to replace my fogs? probably 10-15 minutes?, angels-10 min, corners like 15, and side turning signals like 3 minutes lol. You should be fine ordering from e92-lighting.

I sent E92 a PM to see if he could help me out. Thanks to you both. I'll let you know how it all works out.
