My Ride: 2008 528 XI , debadged, roof spoiler, trunk lip spoiler, 19" Mirro M6 wheels
Ok i just popped the hood to take a look and i could only find one access cap for the angel eyes and when i removed the bulb both rings where white, well one was dark and the other around the headlight was white but on the other side with the bulb still installed both rings were yellow, is there only 2 bulbs on the 2008 528XI with Xenon headlights? Also for the fogs is it a big job to change these bulbs?

I am looking to change my AE's and fog's out to something similar to yours (on my '06 530i sport w/ Xenon). The more I read on all these damn bulbs the more confused I get. Is their a guide anywhere that says AE bulbs = H8, and so forth?

new to this forum, i am in UK, have pre LCI H7 halogen, would like some bright white bulbs that don't show faults, have seen brabus bulbs but can't be sure about fault message, can anyone point me in the right direction, remember i'm a total DIY newbie.

For halogen replacement bulbs, you can run the Xenesis Tru Match Hyperwhite Bulbs in your low beams, high beams and fogs. These are a more pure white color that are a direct replacement for your factory halogens.

The xenon headlights only use 2 total bulbs to power all 4 angel eyes so you just need to replace those two H8 bulbs. We have LED replacements or you can do a hyperwhite H8 replacement. The fogs are not too difficult, I typically go in through the plastic wheel liner.
Thanks
