That headlights are gorgeous.

Thanks for the photos, great job

Did you have to use a conversion harness or the whole retrofit/new modules are PnP to the existing OEM harness?

Those are beautiful I almost have your same set up doctor, here's a picture could you please let us know if those part numbers you posted earlier are all of the ones needed or if anything changed?

I understand they're Euro headlights and that's fine, I just installed Euro tails on my car, love the amber turn ?

I have to extend the wire that comes from FEM module to the right headlight of 20 cm.
It is shorter
So add a wire extension to the end that is connecting to the headlight.
Nothing else.

Yes same part numbers.

Remember that you need coding of FLEL and FLER.

I appreciate the confirmation doctor!

Pardon my idiocracy but I have to ask, how do you extend a wire 20 cm? Did you have to cut something and reconnect/solder it back on? Or buy a BMW wire extender to make it work?

I'm not very smart in that department, hence why my girlfriend works on my car, so I thought I'd ask

Or if anyone has input, how do you extend a BMW wire to make sure the lights still work and there's no issues since I don't know if the wiring has any special cables or parts needed.

Thanks!

[Encanto]

Thanks...

Where actually is this wire (that needs to be extended) coming from the FEM module in the cabin located in the engine bay? Any photos?

Yes cut , add wires and solder.
Easy and save money

Easy to locate it.
Disconnet the wire from the back of the headlight.
Is the only one.

They look so nice, post more pics when you can please

Dealer had no clue how to code the headlights to work, unfortunately.
I am scheduled at another service.
I hope they will succed. BUT ON TUESDAY
OP could you be more specific about the coding needed?
Thanks!

[Encanto]

Dealers don't code unless BMWAG issues an OEM retrofit.

OP did it.. i did it with the tail lights..

[Encanto]

OP did his own coding, he said so. You need to do your own coding as dealers do not code. If your dealer codes then that's outside BMW rules, and they should code your headlights like the OP did then...

Not worth it.

[Doctor1973]

Mine worked with remote coding.
Fler and flel need to be reprogrammed.
I think production car date was changed as well.
