    Need New HID Suggestion to Replace Old Lights

    Because of the neighborhood I'm in and my eyes are not what they used to be, I have decided I want the same HID that I had for my old 328i which were amazing, I don't think any halogen, xenon or LED can compare still.


    Anyone know of the lowest cost HID Kit to replace on my 2003 4dr sedan? I don't need premium quality with all the bells and whistles but something you approve can be used reliably. I'm pretty sure mine are xenon. A link or website would be great, it was confusing last time going through all the different options, I'm no light expert. I would like to replace the whole assembly/bulb/case etc...


    I think I also want to add HID fog lights, mine are pretty useless and getting ugly, and I get fog here about three times a year so... Would rather add more lumens to the road.

    You can try HIDS4U stealth kit for your H7 bulbs (35w and 55w) ranging from 5000-8000k- they’re in the UK and I believe the owner is affiliated with the bmw5 forum. A reputable site that carries them is https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/

    Other options are these new LED ‘all in one’ bulbs which I have not tried but curious whether they avoid light errors/codes: https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/h7...type=led_bulbs

    I hope that helps.

    Long live the forums!

    Hopefully you are not putting HID bulbs into halogen housings! Do you have ZKW headlight housings on your zhp?
