Default E60 lighting issues

Hey guys I need some help with my e60 my dome lights keep flickering or dull or low at times like it's barely on and then sometimes it would be on. My passenger door lamp use to do it first then it started working an moved to the rear dome light now both dome lights are doing it. Also one of my lowbeam headlamp keeps blowing out or burning out either side. It was working but it also recently started doing this for the pass few weeks. I replaced like 4 bulbs in totally in the pass 2 weeks. I checked for fray wires an it is all gd. I have a holagen model 05 525i like 8 months ago I swap an put in a hid kit with a capacitor and it was working until recently the harness kept burning out so I switch to the error free cree leds to see if that would work but the same thing is happening both would be on for a few days and then one will burn out any side. Does any one know what I can do to fix this or where to look ? An thank you in advance

Certainly sounds like a wiring issue.

Need to use IE or Firefox as the site uses an outdated version of Java.

Good luck!
