    Hello, I have encountered an issue with my headlights. My low beams don't turn off, regardless of the knob position. They turn on with the engine and turn off when i shut it off. I have tried with two other LCMs but the issue still remains. Can it be caused by the GM5, because I coded auto rear...

    Hi everyone, recently decided I wanted to swap out the halogen headlights to xenon (not bi xenons) headlights which have also come off a pre facelift model like mine. After doing some research I discovered they were plug and play so went ahead and installed them. The xenons work fine when the...

    Hey All, I have done a bunch of searching on the topic of replacing the driver side ballast and I understand where it is. But I havent been able to find posts or guides on how to replace it with its hard wiring to the headlight on the driver's side since it sits on the shock tower and doesnt...

    Hey, new here. My 328i Touring project has a xenon issue, the left side xenon light isn't working anymore. It used to flash on and off sometimes while driving over bumps. But recently it's just not turning on at all anymore. I swapped the bulbs out to check if that was it, but they are both...

    Hi all, just wanting some advice regarding a car I’m looking at buying. It seems something has gone very wrong here and melted the connector to the ballast of the HID. Any ideas what caused this? Also here’s two main questions: 1) Should I be worried about it damaging any other components...

    Hey, I own a 2005 325Ci and my front lighting has become too weak. The bulbs have never been changed. My car is equipped with Bi-Xenon headlights (part no 63127165951 and 63127165952). I see on realoem that there are two bulbs that fit xenon lights with one being “not suitable for ZKW”. 1- How...

    I have clouded and burnt projectors in my ZKW xenons (among other issues) and I would like to buy one of the retrofit/repair kits. Which one have people had the best luck with? A lot of the websites appear to be selling the same exact kit or slight variations of it. I am not seeing a ton of...

    Hi all, I spent ages searching for another thread with a similar problem but couldn't find anything, so apologies if this has been covered before. Car is a 2004 330ci facelift model with xenons. My headlights work, on all settings; fog, dipped and full, when I turn them on manually. However...

    Hey, so i have a 04' 320cd in hungary. My problem is that the car came originally with regular headlights, not with xenon. The previous owner has built in an xenon headlight with the projectors and everything else expect the auto-leveling ability and the switch inside wich came with factory...

    My car is a 2004 ZHP Convertible that I bought around 4 years ago as a project. I tried to re-wire the headlight assemblies after discovering that all of the internal wires had the brittle insulation that E46's are known for. My repairs were not successful, so in the end I bought new...

    Hi all. I recently purchased an '03 330ci and have seen that all the interior lights have been upgraded to LEDs, but the dome light itself is flickering, so I am looking to replace it. However, I noticed that the dome light switch is connected to the xenon DRLs, which turn off and on when the...

    Hi everyone, My facelift coupe had a slight incident last month and my headlight took a bit of a knock. It seems part of the mechanism for tilting the lights has cracked and now my lights have nothing holding them up. Here's an image of what I mean, unfortunately, I didn't get a video of inside...
