Wondering if anyone knows where i can get the light bulb sockets for the map lights for a 08 E90.

Never had such a hard time installing led's

searched on realoem and can't find it... but i found it on ECS.

find it kind of hard to pay $3.00 for the part and $20 for shipping.

checked with the dealer and they are only able to sell me the whole map light piece. and that's about $130.00 (I rather no map lights than pay that amount lol)

they have oem-like bulbs
if you are looking for LEDs check any car shop around the area like nextmod or auto city
i picked mine up from nextmod but they turn off when the car does the error checks
for the reading lights they are fine though

not looking for the bulbs.... looking for the sockets that hold the bulbs.... found one that works in a older model that is the same in the 08.

oh, sorry i misunderstood
you should check standard autowreckers if they have any e9X in there
something that small they will usually let it go for free
