E90 BMW LCI Headlight Conversion DIY

  • Опубліковано 7 сер 2018
  • In this video I show you how to retrofit LCI headlights onto your Pre-LCI E90 BMW. I also show you how to code the car after to have no errors.
    This really modernizes the look of the car and in my opinion makes it look much better.
    Now that LCI cars are getting older and are starting to get parted out you can do this conversion for a few hundred dollars if you play your cards right.
    We are using the INPA software suite to code the LCI Tail Lights to the car, specifically NCS Expert.
    Link to a thread showing how to setup INPA/NCS Expert:
    www.e90post.com...
    If you have Windows 10 64-Bit:

    You can find the INPA cable online at places such as Amazon or Ebay. Search INPA Cable K+D Can.

    Hey man , it is a cool video and very useful info about the coding. I just wanted to know about upgrading the headlights when you put the new ones LCI , are they coming will all the bulbs, xenon and balast for xenon, so they are “plug&play” ? Because when buying Used lci headlight , they come “nacked” no belbs , xenon , balast at it , andthey are saying we cant use the one we have on the can already mounted

When pulling stock back for flash to pass my normal highbeams just activate. Car is 2011 335is. My older e90 pre lci flash to pass was super bright.

      I'm in the same boat. I don't really like the updated headlights with the "eyebrow". And the PRE LCI tails look so much nicer

      More classic look. I mean the updated modernized look isn't bad.. but I wouldn't go through all that trouble to update it
