Hi Mat. I have recently seen your video on youtube of the installation of the angel eyes in the BMW, I have bought the same ones as you and I have tried all the steps that you do with the red with white and black with black cables, but when you turn on, it is not seen no light, only long distance lights work. That could be happening?

having an e87 myself, i'm very glad i found you dude, there's not a lot of other contents on that specific car.
nicolas pamart Here’s a video with all the CC-ID fault codes EXPLAINED very useful for BMW owners czcams.com/video/6NGWbzCmFrM/video.html
Pretty good video, BUT! There are some very important points I would like to bring to everyone's attention. I am an ASE master Tech with 40+ yrs. of experience. Before you guys do this HL assemble swap here are the negative points. The HL fixture swap is fine it's the different bulbs that cause the first issue. LED's & HID's have a different amperage draw and a different resistance and this will set a code & a warning light on the dash, especially on a BMW vehicle. Another issue is access to the bulbs, depending on the vehicle and space behind the fixture. The new HL fixture is not maintenance friendly. There's no easy snap clip to open the back to access the bulbs as on the OEM's. The new fixture has 5 or 6 screws which make opening the back difficult to impossible. Lastly the aiming fasteners are difficult to use. Matts video shows the wire connections for the halo's 3 pair of wire to be connected to the white(+) & Blk(-) wires. This is not correct, the 3 red wire should be connected to the red wire going to the high beam bulb which is the daytime running lights. That will power the halo's when the light switch is in the automatic position. I have done quite a few of these conversions, So consider these issues beforehand. I hope this helps.
I literally love seeing your e87 series. Got myself a E82 diesel 3 weeks ago. You have inspired me mate.
Got my Msport rims back from powder coat the other day. Gonna go all out with this car.
Stage 2 optimization carbon fiber stuff an fun.
Great vids mate!
Really nice to see content on a 1 series, good job 👌🏻
When you first introduced the idea of customizing the 1-serie I was skeptical. But it looks nice!
Great vid! I did this upgrade on my E81 120i. Keep making these videos, looking forward to the bumper and pipe video... bye from GDL Mexico
Hey Matt, I’m going to be buying a 1 series mk1 soon. So glad I found your videos. Nice one buddy.
So awesome to see how far you've come!
Even now it looks sick as hell. I have the same ride, an E87 118i, only thing I did was changing the rims (AC schnitizer) and a cat-back exhaust
iam happy bcs i have same e87 i loved your content good luck dude with that bmw 💪💪🇲🇰🇲🇰
Top tip mate. The middle two wires of the 6 for the angel eyes power those little leds at the top of the light. I didn't use them so just have the halos lit up.
Hi Mat, thanks for this tutorial! I had no instructions with the lights, so this came in very handy! Needed to program the car afterwards by the way to clear the error messages.
My car is the same as you, so I’ve seen all your videos and Its been helpfull because I’m not expert and I’ll try some chages like u did. ¡Thanks! Hi, I’m from México 🇲🇽 (sorry about my english)
Have 120D myself with OEM HALO lights and loving it.
Do you have to buy entire new headlights or can you just change the bulbs to LED’s
Just bought a 1 series coupe loving the vids might do this to mine
Your amazing the first video I watched told me to take off the bumper and all this stuff and you just pulled it out haha
Just Subscribed! You seem like a geneiun dude. Keep em comin bro x

MERCI BEAUCOUP ! De la France j'ai regardé ta vidéo et tu m'as beaucoup aidé !!!! Merci beaucoup une vidéo bien expliqué ! 🎉
Great stuffs. Thanks 🙏
Love this mod, was thinking of doing it on my e81
Great work mat.. Iv just in middle of installing the same lights but wouldn't of did it if you hadn't shown me.
Massive thanks.
I got pack of 2 white led side lights from halfords £7 and ordered 2 led indicator bulbs from amazon to get rid of the orange.
Thanks kindly.
GOOD and keep it up with you videos bro I love BMW now its a very good car;) recommend it to anyone and everyone, its very good too drive and yes the headlights looks so goooood bro;) thnx and I see it was a lot of work good job.
Yeah not a 15min job but worth it! Thanks for the comment
The LEDs flicker bc the car supplied a 3-6 volt power to check if the bulb circuit completes to check if the bulb is blown or not. Halogens don’t light up as they need 12V whereas LEDs can light up with that low voltage. That causes the fault on the dash and also the flickers. One way to get rid is coding it out and turning off VOLTAGE MONITORING. I know bc I’ve done this 😂 it’s a headache.
How do you code out?
How do you code out?
Hello Mat, Can you post a picture of the wiring instructions. I got the same headlights and I am stuck with how to wire them up.
Saludos desde Florida muy útil la explicación
wiring for angel eyes should be connected to a DRL module so they turn on with ignition and without tail lights
if you undo the side bolts. you can pull the bumper forward and lift the headlights up. the bottom 8mm bolts doenst have to come out.
what brand are these? and how is the light output at night with halogen bulbs?
i hear many ppl complaining with light output after installing these
I had an e90, I remember changing the front bumper with no jack, lol. It took ages. It was previously crashed and I got it cheap, bumper let it down so decided to change it. The fettling it took was mad.
Wow this matt Armstrong video is so old that youtube auto played he was only Mat Armstrong
Hey Matt when u switched out the headlights did u transfer your adaptive greenlight module fun the old headlights to the new ones?
I have the depo V1’s installed on my E87. Will the H7 LED’s work with both the low beam and high beam?
Hey Matt, did you find anything on how to delete those error codes?
Hey mat, ive noticed that for a few e87 headlight updates the headlights flicker...they blink all over the place. is there a spécial headlight for that effect?
Did you ever make a video about removing the lights on the dash screen ? I can’t figure it out
Hi I fitted simler angel eye into my e46 and yeah good lights but like you said they could of already wired em up.to be honest it took some messing about a bit to get em to fit .the only pain in the ass is when you want to change a bulb in em
Hey, have you got problems if melting the headhunt or something like that because of the LED?
I put LED bulbs in my OEM and the reflector started melting, I bought these angel eyes but I’m afraid of fitting the LED bulbs in there.
Great video man!!! I have the same car, any idea why my xtron radio wouldn’t have audio? I bought an adapter because that car has a factory amplifier... I guess sound sometimes and sometimes I don’t... I don’t get it any idea ?
Did you manage to replace the 501 side light bulb seems impossible to remove from housing I found
I got the lights this morning but i just can’t undo the bolt under the leveler, any help will be appreciated ❤
Maybe can you change the pipe and have a better sound, that can be dope bro🔥
you should go for the OEM xenon
After I did this I was getting the headlight bulb light on my dash but they worked kinda weird
Really nice video, I have now discovered a lot of things that can be improve in my E87.
Can anyone tell me if wheels with size 225/50 R16 will fith in my car? I saw Mat's wheels are also 225 but not sure if some modification is required.
Thanks!
Mat.. Any idea why there is a small bulb light in between the 2 rings almost at the top.. Seems pointless at this minute..
Going to do the angel eyes this weekend on my E87 and thnx! This helps alot 😁👍
Did you had DRL before you changed the headlights? Because my car doesn't and i'm wondering if the angel eyes will actually light up by themselves as DRL even if you're car doesn't have DRL by default
When showing how to connect to the sidelights you said the red goes to the black wire and the black goes to the black wire? So they both go to the black wire?
Excellent video but im not a very DIY person, looks like a pain the arse to do this but will try it for myself on my 120d.
Mate wat type side mirrors do you have in your bmw?
Damn. so much work lol
So do the MK3 TT lights fit the MK2 and if so how would you like to fit me a set lol.
This is my favourite 1 series of all time
Ken you juse the old h7 lights in the new lights?
Nice upgrade.... My son swapped out his golf mk6 headlights for after market Mk7 led units..... With an error code... OBD found the fault but wouldn't delete it... Waiting to see what your next edit is with your issue.... 👌
Cheers bro! Next vid will show you!
Hi Matt I’ve got the e88 black too and done a lot of stuff to it about to do the quad exhaust, wondering if you wanted to do a lil meet up for youtube/pictures would be sick man!
I just subscribed to your channel. How is the e87 going? I jusst bought one 2009, 122k (Australia) I am thinking about doing the same mod.
Do you think you could use that bike mount on a 1 series cabrio? Like forks at the top of the rear windscreen and rear wheel by the end of the boot lip. Would be handy!
I have a 2009 118i convertible, do you know roughly how much it would cost for a supply and fit and where would you go? Being a gal I have not got a clue x
nice upgrade for 1 series, share with us the link !
bye from italy
It would have been nice to have a side-by-side comparison of the old vs. new headlights just so that we can really appreciate the difference! 🤷🏻♂️
yeah i should of done that!
Do you adjust level by manuel or does the automatic motor does the work? U know for the bulb?
Dark green 1 series 🙏
Hi mate, did you fit HID kit to these to get the white
Quality videos mate enjoying watching them trying to learn how I can improve my own little 1 series.. where’s the grille from mate & is it matte black? Also have u a link for the headlights? :)
Found the link to headlights nvm.. :)
I read that It would give a problem with the start/stop automatic
Hi, could you please give the company name of the led bulbs that you have installed in the lamps?
I have a 2012 128i with adaptive headlights. I know the aftermarket lights aren't adaptive, but I can I install them in my car?
Great stuff, apart from the twisted wires with insulation tape... gee, do it properly man.
Okay so my side light comes on no Angel eyes? And my full beam is on instead of dipped
Hey will those fit BMW 118d 2l special edition coupe 2013 ?
Where i can get the headlighta because in the linke u put down below its says page not found
Is the install of xenon headlights the same process?
Hi, what bulbs did you use ?
Thanks
bro i have just brought a bmw 1 series 11d 2008 im 18 and i want to the angle headlights but its not on your page anymore can you send me a new link
He, Super, one Question, From what year is the BMW E87?
im so interesting if someone can fit the m5 (2005) headlights on this BMW 1 series that would be sooooo sickkk
Does this lights have a led strip or am I seeing things?
From where you bought this light set
Hey if you order an LED 194 bulb and remove the ugly yellow light, you can replace them and it is all white. I agree, why didn’t they just do that earlier🙈
Installe feux arrières à led 👍
Hey Mat, i just bought these headlights, hust wondering how u managed to undo the scrub of electrical level part engine, im really stuck at this point if u could help please
@Ronim Gaming Found any answers?😅
Anyone have issues adjusting these? Mine were not adjustable enough to pass MOT
Xenon bulbs for fog lights side lights and near offside lights needed
Did anyone try to change climate panel on e87 from manual to automatic, does it work?
The manual one is all mechanical whereas the auto is electric. You would have to change all the flaps over. And fit a new loom. Also would need to fit a temp sensor in the car also. Then do all the coding.
Big job.
Bro mijn exenon recht werkt niet
Nieuw module gekocht nieuw lamp werkt nog altijd niett!!!! Help
Ive have these same angel eyes on my E81 for around a year and they really bug me now when thry are in sidelight mode as each light has that horrible little LED light just above the middle of the halo's that shines brighter then the halo's taking away the effect of the angel eyes...i am now considering changing them for a different set without those LED's
Roland I'm fitting these lights today.. I thought like you and iv disconnected the middle red wire stopping this little stupid light coming on..
@@craigirving5540 Good idea...those LED's above the angel eyes are horrible. I ended up getting rid of these angel eye lights last month and buying a set of Depo V2 angel eyes that dont have that LED light above the halos haha
I know this is a longshot, but maybe anyone had a problem with the xenons? When I start the engine mine go down like they're supposed to, but then they go up way too much and stay there, blinding other people on the road. I have no idea what could be the problem, I don't get any fault messages on the dashboard or infotainment system everything seems to be connected, also a third of the time I drive headlights work properly. There are no sounds coming from the headlights, I didn't modify the suspension and I don't have the adaptive headlights. I don't want to blind others, but I also have to drive daily to make it from work to lectures and driving on DRL is a bit dangerous. I have 1er e81 if that makes any difference.
Where is how to get rid of the warning bulb light? Anyone can help? Got lights installed and now i can't find how to fix this bulb error
Onde é a página para comprar esses faróis?

Please make the doors with the handles with lights
You need to code voltage monitoring out, stop the flickering on startup
