So easy! 10 mins for total upgrade. Only thing is get the error code when car starts up, then gos away? Car is going in for service on monday so I will have them clear it hopefully. I am very happy with the look

Before - After - Compare

Notice: The OEM halogen is far brighter during the day. At night complete opposite. can't win with the LCI headlights lol. I have the same Weisslicht LEDs and pulled them out after being disgusted with constant error messages.

Are there code cancelers for these WeissLicht LEDs?

Thought I'd update this thread.

I just installed these on my E60 and got the error codes. Contacted Bimmian (who I got them from) and complained since they guarantee no error codes. The manufacture is aware of this problem for E60s only and has come out with a new ballast that will get rid of the code. I'm getting a set of ballasts shipped to me, at Bimmian's expense.

Maybe you guys should contact whoever you bought them from.
