I bought them from eBay. Cheap versions, keywords: "Bau15s high powered LED".

Thanks for the video, where did you get them? did you have to install resistors too or is it just plug and play like the Spektrum ones at bimmian.
Do you have pictures of the ones you actually got?
Thanks.

Hi! I bought them from eBay for a year ago. I will try to find link to the exact bulbs. They will give bulb errors, but the solution are removing the bulb check control for turn signals.

I have ordered new 40W high powered LED´s i will try when they arrive.

Here is a new video with my new LCI headlights. I think they are more brighter with this clear turn signals. (sorry for bad quality. I will make new clip later).

It actually looks pretty original, the led flash itself. A link for those amber turn signal bulbs would be great!

It's a shame actually that they didn't make LCI turn signal led in the first place.

I got the bulbs today! Here is a little comparison with the new and the old bulbs. I was wrong, the new bulbs are 80w each, not 40w as i wrote earlier. I will post a new movie outside in daytime tomorrow.

Old to left vs. new to right




New 80w LED to left and the old "7,5w" LED on the right side.

Outside. This is much brighter than the old one and are very similar to the E90 LED turn signals.
