Headlights: Upgrade Xenon to LED LCI (2018+)

[Insane435]

I have been searching for awhile trying to find a list of parts to accomplish this. No luck. Also could not find a DIY or guide.

Can anyone on here offer me some guidance on what parts I need? I know that it will cost a few thousand and it will not be plug and play/require coding. This is for a friends 2016 M3 with Xenon headlamps.

TIA!

My understanding is that a full set headlight including all modules is around $3500-4000 and then install plus coding $500-600.

Reality is used sets are $3500, new sets are $4500-$5000 install is 6-7 hours and there is a harness needed that’s about a couple hundred, plus coding

My swap should be done Monday I’m very happy I did it

Can you send me the part numbers required please?

I found the following part numbers for US spec headlights:

USA LCI headlights P/N:
63117478159
63117478160

USA LCI modules P/N:
63117457875 (2)
63117493229
63117493230
63117493233
63117493234

What else am I missing to get these to work? I assume the wiring is different. Are there harnesses out there or can someone get me a wiring diagram of each scenario so I can see what is different?

Not really worth the hassle to sell your car, take a big loss, then pay sales tax on your new car. Just do the conversion!
