Some kits already put a warning on their page "stating that 2006-2007" E90 models *may not work??? WTF???

Here are the 3 models I have looked at, but I don't want to start buying just to test them. They are all from "Support Vendors"

http://www.n54tuning.com/index.php?_...&productId=113
http://www.topgearsolutions.com/bmw-...135i-335i.html
http://www.modmy3.com/bmw-accessorie...anbus-kit.html

It was several months ago. I dont recalll the names but these are two of the three that I tried. All came with cancellers/resisters and were "guaranteed" to be error free.

I don't know if there is differences in particular build months but I just bought this kit for my Mtech kit fogs (9006) with cancellers and everything was plug and play with no issues!

Edit:

I was completely wrong! Only tested one side (driver) the passenger side doesn't come on. Tested both kits on the drive side and they worked. I think our cars need proper coding to make it work!

I got HID headlights & fogs to work without cancelers. Did the coding myself, had to change the voltages by editing the Nettodat file. Perfect after that

it has nothing to do with the HID KIt, canbus, resistors, cancellers, Doesnt matter if its a $10 kit or a $100 kit. The only sure way to avoid flickering and errors is to get coding done to stop the bulb check.

Yeah, the wattage and the bulb code is the same as my stock Mtech halogen fog lights, even though it says civic.

I used inline resistors ($15 ebay ones) as long as I wait until after the start-up test to turn them on they work fine.
