http://www.bmwled.net/one-pair-e92-20watts-led-marker-2 http://www.bmwled.net/h820wattsledangeleyeshalobulbs The first link is too big for the housing through my experience. The second one fit perfectly. Which one do u have? |

Tip on installing the second ones... hook up the bulb to the power supply and work on installing the bulb while kind of hanging onto the power supply with your other hand. That way when and if the bulb falls down into the abyss, you can just pull it back out. I got them in without unscrewing the heatsink. Good luck.

Finally got mine in today and they look great but holy CRAP what a pain in the ass to install!!! Whoever decided the cooling fins should screw on to the base in the direction opposite of the way you have to turn the light to lock it in should be FIRED!!!
EVERY single time I got it lined up just right I'd start to turn it to get it locked in place and the fins would start coming unscrewed. Ridiculous. Even tried locktite and THAT didn't work either! Finally managed to get it lined up just right, and then grabbed it from the inside of the fins with needle nose pliers and was able to lock it in place. OH, and here's another little tip. I also discovered that the rubber grommet/gasket thing they have installed on the bulb is way too thick. I swapped it for the one on the OEM bulb and they went in MUCH easier. |

Finally getting around to taking a picture of the 20W bulbs. So far, I'm pleased.

my 32w bulbs came in and got them installed. tbh i cant tell the difference between them and the 20w in terms of output. this is what the actual 32w bulbs look like.
20w on the left. 32w on the right. i think the 20w might be a tiny bit brighter, but it's hard to tell. i'll keep it like this for a couple days and see if i notice anything different. Last edited by i dunno; 05-02-2013 at 12:23 AM.. |
