My Ride: /// 2006 | 530I | Silver Gray Metallic | Sport / Prem / Navi / IPod | LCI EURO SPEC Tail's | LED Licence plate bulbs | LED side turn indicators | Roof Spoiler MORE TO COME!!!!
Hi guys, I just purchased a 530I, and i have to say this car is awsome, im moving up from a GS300, and the differenc is night and day.
So now the moding begins again for me, so i wanted to start with lighting
i wanted to get the LED setup LED turn (amber) and LED brakes with the Red bars, i know that the 2009 comes with the LED red turn indicator but i saw some that had an amber one,
also, as far as LEDs needed for the interior and licence plate, is there a page on here where there are sizes for each one , i looked it up on sylvainias web site, but i cant find anyone that carrries these festoon bulbs, and i saw on the e90 post that there are people installing resistors to get rid of the light out indicator on the OBC..
So let the moding begin.....

to the forum fellow left coaster (I am assuming you are in chino hills)For the LED tails, amber blinkers are Euro spec OEM taillights. You will also need cables from member bruce_miranda so you don't get error codes with the OEM tails. PM him for the cables and he can tell you where to get Euro spec OEM LCI (models 2008+) tails from.
For the LED plate lights: members r1racer and nerweezy (Trinity autosports) carry them, plug and play, no resistors needed (pic in my gallery). PM these guys for that.

Member brabusw209amg also sells plug and play interior LED kit

I believe brabus also sells LED plate lights as well, browse the classified-vendor section
