Need some advice on replacement headlights e90 08 sedan xenon
Hey so I need some direction... I bought a set from Umnitza as I've had great success from the with my E46 and E36 in the past. I have sold my Adaptive factory Xenons already and should have just kept them and refinished them... the Depos I got from Umnitza unfortunately have problems... 1/2 of the led V4's isn't burning and the lights make an awful buzzing noise. Like it's trying to account for the leveling or something...
What options do I have other than going OEM? Are there any reliable aftermarket options that won't cost me 1500 bucks? |

Is there a plug that comes with these though to power the ballasts? And will they plug to the factory harness? And other functions like turn signals? I'm not concerned about Adaptive lighting or auto leveling. Once I get them adjusted I'll be fine...

Any pics will be great. What hid kit would I need to get? Are there any to cancel errors? Since I'm factory xenon going to an aftermarket kit?

I'd go for Depo P90s from fishcake on ebay. They're around $400 a set I believe, and look similar to OEM but without the ambers. Basically like OEM euros. You'll need to have the AHL coded out as well as the hot and cold checks to avoid codes.

I have those coming in the next few days... I pray they work with my factory xenon... I'm going to retro some better projectors from the retrofit source...
