Did a headlight thing

Looks great!

looks like https://www.bavgruppedesign.com/prod...n8-fe5rf-srla9 is the one making these halos

That's it. Keep in mind I don't think that includes the eyebrow, which really finishes off the look.

And last but not least, opening these headlights is a pain attempted only by a few. Not to mention having to disassmble everything if you are getting it painted, which I don't see why you wouldn't.

On the https://www.zworklights.com/index.php/f10m5lci.html page says F10 M5 LCI. Is this the option I should use for 2015 535xi which is LCI F10? I am really interested in vision halos and the eyelid. Is the price on website for one or two headlights?

AmooManiak · 06-02-2020, 06:36 PM

It's for two. I think the LCI version also updates the turn signal to an LED strip.

So beautiful! $2k for the pair or per headlight?

AmooManiak · 06-02-2020, 08:19 PM

For pair. It actually ends up being a little less most of the the time, unless you pick every option.

watched a bunch of videos on opening a headlight and unless you've done this it's not worth effing up your headlight.

That is also my deciding factor to DIY or not.

Are the headlight modules modified in any way? do you still need the STML aka TMS modules?

AmooManiak · 07-22-2020, 09:52 AM

I don't think so, everything works just like it did before. They basically disassemble, paint, install the new angel eyes/switchback and re-assemble.

Only thing I'm having an issue with is the coding to get the "parking lamp" error to go away, so they are doing a workaround to get rid of it.

I see , the original LED angel lights have a module if disconnected a code is thrown. Seeing how the new angel eyes have their own wiring to the fuse box I was wondering what is done to to the original module.

That's the issue I'm having, see the thread below. No one seems to be able to figure out how to get the error coded out. I even took it to a "BMW Master Technician" who codes at a dealership.

The the shop will do a workaround after plugging it back in.

This is from F30 thread https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=829691

Looks like few parameters need to be coded in FEM_BODY module on F30, similar parameters should be in FRM, CAS, or JBBF modules on F10. Check out that thread, it should give you some pointers.

Thanks, let me send this over to the coder to see if he can do anything with it.
