Hey guys,

I've tried to search the forum to find a solution to my problem but without succes.


The thing is that i've bought a set of brand new 08' LCI xenon headlights (without adaptive feature) and i want to fit them to my 04' 530D, but but but, her comes the problem... The plug on the new headlight is completely different to the old plug on the car

Do you know if I'll be able to get the headlights working just by rearranging the wires ind the plug or do I also need a new light module ?

Please help

Here are the headlights and the plug:

If you buy a later LCI LCM you will also need the new loom and new LCI tail lights
