Parking light burned out...

SilentAttack · 01-18-2015, 07:06 PM

So I have a 2009 (LCI) 328 xdrive as a daily and the drivers parking (halo) light burned out. Im not looking to upgrade to Lux or anytihng like that but just wondering if anyone has had any luck with upgraded LED lights that cost about what 1 OEM one cost?

I have halogen lights btw.

Nobody upgrades their 328s or 335s halo bulbs?

I think the reason you're not getting any response is because this topic has been covered like a thousand times. You can get your answer in 5 seconds by doing a quick search on the forums or just on google. Unfortunately I don't have hands-on experience dealing with plug-n-play AE LED/Halogen bulbs so I have nothing to share. Hopefully some members or vendors can chime in.

Yeah Im sure its been covered for the most part but my question was directed at a cheep set off E-bay or something in that line. Its just my DD 328 so not too interested in spending alot on nice Led rings

I can recall seeing quite a few of threads of successful/happy stories with those cheap Ebay bulbs. Search for "ebay bulb" in the COSMETIC/EXTERIOR MODS forum and I'm sure you'll find some good information there.

One think I can definitely comment on is buy it from a US Seller that way in case if something goes wrong, you don't have to pay so much to ship the item back.

good luck.

I say led.. Get a relatively new or slightly used

set on our for sale forums. I recently paid 30$ for a pmlit led pre LCI set and are awesome.. And just got a set of mtec ones for 35$! I recommend the upgrade since doing it is a pain in the ass.
Jack the car. Remove the wheel. Remove the front inner fender liner . an hour both are done.
