Sorry, go to the vendor forum and look up Brabus.... He's the lighting guru at E60.

What the dealer quoted you was a factory Xenon replacement set of headlights with adaptive lighting, a new LCM, and labor.

Even so, this is about $3500 too much.

We will finally have Factory OE Xenon and adaptive lighting in the next few days and will begin to offer them for all models for the E60.

You can get LCI lights - post 2008 - or non-LCI lights and upgrade for about $1200-1500 by yourself, then get someone to enable the programming.


OR! You can just get some halogen projector LCI lights, and just get our Canbus HID kit and get no errors for a lot less.

Give us a call on Monday. 925 521 0577

depends on the year of your car and what your desires are in terms of being able to retrofit adaptive or just doing Xenon without adaptive.
