Just remove my stock HID type headlight and install this one halogen headlight?

Is the plug of HID headlight as the same as Halogen headlight?

No need to coding or cancel any function?

If your car came with OEM HID (Xenon) then I don't think this headlight is plug and play for you. It's mean for cars with OEM halogens.

Quick clip comparing the difference between my old halogen lights with LUX LCI bulbs, and the new lights.

What a difference! So far my headlights have been turning alotta heads and survived the Jonas blizzard lol

Ruddigger · 01-25-2016, 12:06 PM

Haha, yeah, I know what you mean. I rolled into a cruise night and everyone was in love with the new headlights.

jbnery6465 · 01-25-2016, 01:09 PM

Can anyone post a nightime picture of the low-beam spread on a street? My experience with most aftermarket headlights is that the beam pattern isn't solid or even. TIA!

Ruddigger · 01-25-2016, 02:00 PM

It's shit. I'm still dialing it in, but I don't expect it to get much better.

Ruddigger · 01-30-2016, 11:51 AM

FYI, if anybody else gets the turn signal error in the morning, I got it a few more times. It's always in the morning when it's cold out, and after about 30 minutes of driving it goes away. My guess is that maybe condensation is getting on that loose connector, since my car is not garaged. So I wrapped the passenger side connector in electrical tape. Next morning, turn signal error, but driver side only... So I wrapped the drover side in electrical tape, too. No errors after that.

UPDATE: Error has returned, left side only. In the morning when its cold, and goes away after a bit of driving and using the turn signal. Any ideas?

perezr10 · 01-30-2016, 03:11 PM

Can you program the angel eyes to stay on with iCarly?

Rulz · 01-31-2016, 11:21 PM

Wow. Excellent, what worries me is the output of the light... It is good or lesser than the oem?
Btw I'm in love with the look

tc535i · 01-31-2016, 11:46 PM

Wonder if you could do a hid retrofit with lens easily

They already come with projectors so an HID retrofit should be fairly simple.

Projectors may not be as good as oem though, and depending on the situation, may want to upgrade to better projectors first.

That's exactly what I just said. Lol

Update? still throwing codes? moisture issues?

edit just saw you fixed the issue.

I wonder how one would go about a HID retrofit

I updated my post, turn signal error came back, left side only. It goes away after a bit. I'm stumped.

Does the errors prevent it from working? Wonder if just coding out bulb checks would do the trick.

GSTiDDY · 02-07-2016, 04:10 PM

Lights have been perfect. Went through 2 snow storms and 2 car washes. No condensation nor codes/errors. Honestly, nowadays I look at all angel eyes seen while driving and say ehhh lol. However, I see other peoples light output and say damn, mine suck lol( not just beemers). Still haven't gotten a chance to put the HID's in yet. In due time

Coding out will not help. It does the quick blink, like if a bulb was burnt out.

perezr10 · 02-08-2016, 08:16 PM

More daytime pics of how the front end looks please. Looks awesome.

GSTiDDY · 02-08-2016, 09:16 PM

Not my car/pic. Here are the same style but the MARS headlights.

noah.s · 02-12-2016, 02:53 PM

I'm thinking of ordering these. How are they holding up and do you guys like them?
The PO took out the adaptive headlights for some reason and put in some shitty aftermarket ones. They work fine but the lenses are fucked. They throw the adaptive headlight error which I'm going to code out, I'm assuming these will work the same?

Usually replacing headlights means front end wreck and cheaping out on repairs... look close
