Light Question - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

OneSick3 · 01-21-2008, 11:58 AM

I put in some Hoen bulbs to change the Angel Eyes following the DIY listed. I have searched through many posts and can not seem to fin how to replace this bulb, one they dont match my HID's or the rings, and two this morning one of them wouldnt come on.. Any idea what bulb it is and how to replace it? Has anyone done this and what bulb did you use, where did you get it, how much was it and can you post pictures?

BTW this is not my car just a picture of the light Im having an issue with I have an 07 335i coupe...

those lights only turn on when you turn into a corner or when you turn your left or right signal on. they are H3's i believe and the way to change them is in the same place when you changed your angel eye bulb. it's the bulb with a blue wire...if you search the forum there is a DIY also...

Is that some kind of corner light ? It should have adaptive xenons for cornering, whats the purpose of this light ?

That's the DRL (on sedans)/High beam (H7 bulb type). They can be swapped out very easily. We do carry replacement bulbs for them on our site- Predator Xenix. Let me know if you have any questions.

What about Coupes? Someone said earlier its an H3 and on Real OEM I dont see an H7 just the H8 and and the HID bulb...
