I am using the same LED bulbs on the halos as I am using with the interior LED and I am getting the ERROR message on my system. Is it bad? Is it harmful to the car?

I'm using it because I like the color, light blue. Looks good on the halos. I have the one without the error, but it's just plain white. IMO

I would be careful using a bulb that does not have the proper wattage or resistor incorporated into/with the bulb. You could overheat and melt something causing you to need replacement of the headlight unit.


Post your year and model as well as xenon or halogen lamps equipped on your e60...members can recc a better/safer solution....
