I bought the exact bulbs from amazon for my E60. Instant MOT fail recently, no beam pattern at all just bright white light. Shame really as they are lovely and bright
Man what you talking about ???? Mot failure ???? Your not meant to take your car for MOT I get MOT just sitting at home mine always pass with these bulbs
@@BMWDoctor MOT tester straight away said there was an issue with the beam pattern. Basically there was no pattern at all, no vertical cut off line or left / right pattern. This would explain the number of cars that now flash me at night time!!!😄. Like I said shame as they are really bright and increase visibility at night
So, I recently swapped my dying halogen bulb to LEDs and maybe things that i knew could be helpful for peoples who hesitant to buy LEDs. The thing is, you should avoid the ones that has LED chips all around its body. Two sided COB ones is better but because of their chip size, they still produce some blinding glares. You want the chips to be as small and located at the same place as halogen filament. The closer the LED size to halogen, the better cutout you got. You won't blind the others this way as long as your headlight alignment was right. Your best pick for reflector headlight would be two sided single row Seoul CSP (consists of 1x3 CSP per side, not 2x3) or two sided 1x3 Lumileds Z ES ones. If you have more budget, you can pick Philips Ultinon Pro series that is based on Lumileds Altilon (no Chinese brand uses this yet. They costs $14 each for 500pcs order compared to $1.5-ish for Lumiled Z ES)
Great video, but I still believe that LED and HID bulbs should be used ONLY with projector headlights, not with the reflector ones to avoid blinding the other drivers. That's why the conventional halogen bulbs are used in reflector headlights. Just my thoughts!
the key is the LED size and placement. you don't want LED bulb that has LED chip all over the place or way bigger than halogen filament (like COB LEDs). take a look on Philips Ultinon series. that's how LED retrofits should looks like to get the same cutout as halogen on reflector headlight. Test Lab (Russian) and Sergiu Gabor has quite good reviews on LEDs and I learned a lot how to pick the right ones there
I wonder how loud those bulb fans can get, the heat can get pretty intense in that area on a hot summer day and the plastic fan may not be able to keep up and melt
Hi please could you drop the link to buy those connectors those are the most essential part of this mod, thanks e46 driver all the way from Botswana,Africa.
Thanks for your video, Are you still off the view that H7 works better in projector headlamp? Because you just installed the h7 in a reflector headlight, so I'm trying to make sense of what I'm supposed to do regarding my car.
Hi, thnx for sharing. Did the adapter for the socket come with the novsgiht?. I ordered novsgihts too but they did not come with them. Any idea where I can get ahold of them? Thnx
Tried to get there internal fan for the air-conditioning to turn off whenever I turn it off by the Settings, but it still keeps running even when the ignition is off. I heard of major problem. Have you got a fix for this?
Why do you need adapter if you can just buy LED H7 which is like regular Halogen H7 and just replace the bulbs without additional holders are adapters? Am O missing something? Because in shops there are just H7 leds and these kind of leds with wires like in this video so what is the difference between them?
I bought some led bulbs that are two sided and where the light is in the same place where the halogen light is. But the thing is that when ever they're one there is a big triangle shadow in the middle of the road when ever the light are turned on, anyway to fix this so the triangle shadow is not there any more? For a bmw 2001 330i
Hello, thanks for video, i have a e46 coupe facelift, i install a pair of h7 led, is very shiny but i have poor light on road, what else i can do now? Thank you.
Hey mate great video! Followed the steps and had no problems with the install. Only thing (and I'm hoping you can help!) Is they're in my 2000 320i E46 Saloon and I get the LED flicker for a few seconds just on startup? No fault or blown bulb showing just the flicker? Any advice??? Cheers! Keep the videos coming!
@bmw doctor, what i can tell out of all these comments here is that you actually blocked everyone that had anything opposite of your opinion, is that right? :)
I thought these LEds were meant to be not so good, any reviews seemed to say HID Ballast was better, no definite line of vision at night,just bright, ??great vids, just go a bit slower and lots of light on jobs you do
Do you know if BMW Left the fog light harness in the 2022 G05 X5 to be able to retrofit fog lights? Saw one of you other vids showing that they just hide harnesses vs removing them.
I replaced my oem halogen bulbs with these new Led bulbs. I keep getting flashed from on coming drivers. But i can see so much better on the roads now. Any idea. My led lights are 90w 6500k
@@ieatsnakez i choose these bright more whiter ones because i have my headlights tinted. The osram cool blue intense are halogeen H7 easy to install and have like 20% more brighter light. And i read that when i install LEDs i lose light on the road. But i did ordered LED for my fog lights.
Hey i have a 325ci with halo headlights , i bought the m3 headlights (xenon ) and i plugged the m3 headlights but now they flickering any idea what can be the problem ?
Hey bro, love your work and videos keep it up! Saving me tons of money with your instructional videos and detail. Quick question and I know I’m late on this but can you tell me what those clips you got are called? Wanna get rid of the yellow piss looking halos on my e39 and if this works on those I’ll bow to your magic and doctors orders! Nice one 👍🏽
@bmw doctor thank you so much for this video. Sorry for my English. We everyone request you to have references of adaptator. We want buy them but we not found adaptator. Can you give us link to buy them please? Thanks a lot.
Can this truly be used without a projector to focus the light? Isn't the light going to be dispersing way too much? If I were to pass a police car at night time they would flip their sh*t.

I totally agree. I have put them in all non xenon hid from factory cars and usually are good, but got to get well priced units. I swear buddy I was rolling around my living room floor, keep up the good work.
Cheers bud, think I'm going to give this a go myself. I was also thinking about adding the magnifying glass on them too, you think they're worth it? Also do these come with the black plastic bits you put the new bulbs in?
