Great setup, where did you get the 10k lights.

[liug]

yeah
where did you get the 10k bulb?

 

[My-Sweet45]

thx to esemes :lol: , he gave me the referal to a guy from LA. You just pay him through paypal and he'll mail it to you via USPS. It's not very secure, there is no transaction in place to ensure your purchase. So it is based on trust, but so far so good. PM me if you want his contact info.

nice setup. by changing the lights for the license plate, is that street legal?

 

[davezaristo]

I was just outside messing around with my light bulbs and i had a hard time turning that light bulb socket for the front signal light on both sides...is there a trick to it or is it my hands are just too weak? I can reach it but not enough leverage to turn it...

also, how do you replace the fog light bulbs?

 

[Zethar]

Wow,

Those new lights look outstanding! Great comparison photos.

To change your turn signal lights you need a really thin wrist. My mechanic's assistant changed it for me.

As for the license plate light in the rear, I did that in CA when I had my BMW, I used a light green color to match my hella black tail lights, the sad thing is in CA its illigal to do that and I got puller over and got a fix it ticket the second day.

thx :lol: love that matching color, and it is illegal in CAL, but I figure when a cop highbeam you with their search light it'll cover the red license plate light. look at the photo below, not very noticeable when a direct headlight over it. :lol:

To davezaristo

I didn't replace my signal light b/c the yellow side marker is still yellow even if you change the turn signal light. But I think thin wrist can fit in that tight space. AS for fog light, after you remover about 5 screw under the bumper, you can gain access to the fog light bulb. To remove it just rotate it counter clockwise and it will come right off.

 

[jimsbmw]

Just be carefull when you remove the fog light. When sealing it back up make sure you do it right and carefully. The dealer changed my fog lights when I picked up my car, the did not seal it right and the tech was good enough to replace the unit (if not would cost some $$$).
