There are bound to be a lot of questions to you so please try and provide as much information as you can.

So you simply bought the new parts, unscrewed and disconnected the old part and installed the new ones. Correct? Nothing else.

So it was a simple swap no resistors etc needed. That could me the electronic components are inside the housing. But wont those resistors get too hot inside.

What are the cost of these lights in US Dollars? I assume the dealer is the only place to get them right now? Might be time to call Garry Romani at BMW of Newport for that 25% discount...
