Great work, congrats!

You don't have corner lights and ambience lights function, am I right?

When I run my retrofit attempt I stopped with the angel eyes issue. Your solution with the fog light wiring was great but I didn't have it in my M5.

Maybe I still need the LCM to get it fully working with all LCI functions.

I just received the wiring package last week.


contact MY530i user,fred,and he can explain how to use 2 relays ,and all work ok

Hello Andy, depending on your car year. If you don't have D1S bulb on your car, you need:

1. The control unit ( for xenon bulb w/ ignition element D1S).
2. Bulb xenon light w/ignition element
3. Lamp holder (to hold xenon bulb in place)

The AHC can be reused I believe.
thanks man,
I have the D2S. car's 9/2004 - with xenon, adaptive.

I found a set of new LCI bixenon, adaptive, complete for 1k euros. The only thing i could reuse is the transformer I guess.
I might jump on them...
