welcome..... sorry cant help you with this..... but you question will have a response soon from the experts..... give us more info on the car and where you are from....

Rudy

While you're at it, give us more information on what parts you're dealing with. A part number for the headlight maybe? What kind of lights (or part number) did your car come with?

Photos would also be a plus if possible...

ewein

the part number is 160 413 04 LI, it's a 04 E60 headlights with light movement function. I'll take the picture later.
thanks, bro!

I've edited my profile now. Thanks man! I hope I could get help here, cause I think this place is the most depandable place 4 everything about E60, right?

After reading the experiences of others on this forum, I can only say that this seems to be a tricky do-it-yourself project. It seems that BMW does offers retrofit "kits" for adaptive lights (as well as for Xenon lights) but I'm pretty sure without help from a dealership and it's programming equipment, you might have some problems. At the very least, the following information can help you out with the switch but you might still get a warning about a headlamp malfunction without installing a resistor or the dealer reprogramming something. As far as the adaptive (moving) feature of the lights, I can't see how simply bolting on a set of adaptive lights will magically work. I would think there would need to be some additional steering sensors, etc. to interface with the light assembly.

To make matters more complex, all of this may be different for a car in China.

Either way, read the following two threads (the first thread contains a link to the second one) and search the forums some to see what you're getting into:

Good luck, welcome, and keep us posted!

Thanks a million already! I'll check those threads! and I'm not considering 2 functioning the lights turn, only thing I want is to make all the lights works, and convert it on my Brilliance M1 now. I hope I could find any BMW dealships help here, but it ain't possible, the service fee here is unreasonable <_< .I'll try my self first. Thanks again! I'll keep post!!!
