2008 535i main headlight dying

[dmelo818]

Hello BMW Brothers,
This is my first post, so go easy on me

My left main headlight turned purple and seems to be dying a few days ago.

I wanted to know what you guys recommend to replace it with. Which are the the brightest ones I can buy from a reliable vendor?

Probably best to replace both I am assuming right? Is this something I can install myself?

Thanks!

I received my lights very quickly. Ordered Friday and got them Saturday next day!

I need to know where I can get the lights installed. If anyone knows a shop in Los Angeles around (San Fernando Valley -or- Santa Monica) please let me know.

Thank you.

Glad to hear that they came quickly and they worked out. If you're looking for a great shop in general and one that deals esp with BMWs, take it to Avus Autosport (we have no affiliation with them btw), hands down one of the best, if not the best BMW shop in LA and surrounding cities. Located in Glendale. Very fair and excellent work. Let us know if there's anything else that we can help you with.
