BULB HELP! - Can't find e90 daytime running bulb that won't throw a code

Justin7894 · 11-20-2010, 01:16 PM

Looking for a non-oem (bright white/hid look) bulb to replace the bulb that functions as the daytime running lights. I am talking about the one that sits NEXT to the projector. I have OEM xenons.

Also - Does anyone know of an LED bulb that replaces the e90 corner light, next to the turn signal bulb?

Thanks!

your daytime running light is H7 55W, MTEC's are error free

Did you ever find out an LED for the corner light? From my experience in the past, but with a GM model, switching a turn signal to LED causes it to blink faster; a load relay was added to the fuse box. Not sure what will happen if an LED replaces the stock bulb for the corner. The reason bulbs on cars blink fast is because something is out, it's the car's way of telling the driver. But with BMWs, there are so many different sensors that will actually say there's an error. So...this website sells LEDs replacement for the type of the corner bulb: www.autolumination.com

when you replace the DRL w/ a whiter bulb, when it is on at reduced voltage(ie. DRL) it still looks yellowish. only when used as flash to pass mode does it look whiter. i found out the hard way.
