Thank you so much for reminding us that many of these have a removable adapter ring! I spent over an hour trying to seat by LED last night, totally forgot most are like the one you are showing!
@@romes_ They fit very well. I did not make any modifications to the housing whatsoever. I just get an error message when I start the car. It goes away in a few seconds but it’s annoying.
I’m very grateful for your video. I’ve mounted bossila led on low beams. Working great. Fun fact, my e90 is pre lci - no mistakes appear. I got one more question is it possible to mount the same setup on high beams?
Looking at pulling the trigger for my pre lci. Cool to know it works on those too as I was wondering about the headlight dimensions differing and still being able to cover and tuck. 2 years later still holding up? No shorting on the toggle switch from using all the modes?
Do your lights change colors when turning your brights on and off to fast? I have to wait at least 15 second between cycling my high and low beams so it won’t change color.
Hi there. I hope your Boslla LEDs are still working. I ordered a kit because I watched your video and had tons of issues with the flickering and error messages, despite trying two different sets of capacitors sent to me by Boslla. I've given up on this product and will return it asap.
Great video! Do you happen to know the dimensions of the bulb, I have a similar bulb and want to make sure I can close the headlight cover with no clearance issues. Also did you get any error light on dash with these?
@@mufasagoesviraltv5266 Yes the red ones on amazon with "H7" on the name is the one we installed on ours. This youtube video was the only one showing us how it will fit, so we went ahead and got them and installed it!
Looks good. Is there a time setting or something where it will time out the color change? If I leave the headlights on for an amount of time will it remember what color that it was set to?
Good question, honestly I am not sure. I generally run them on the 6000k which is the first setting. I would imagine it defaults to the 6000k on startup but I haven't tested that.
Hi, I just came across your video. Thanks! There's been long and many discussions re using LED bulb for reflective housing. What's your thoughts? As far as I know only Xenon comes with projector housing so I struggle with replacing halogen bulb to LED while keeping the reflective housing. Thanks in advance!
Yeah that's a total toss up right, technically you are not supposed to put LEDs into reflective housings due to the light pattern. I don't see an issue with it as long as you adjust the housings to make sure you aren't blinding anyone coming at you. I had to adjust these down quite a bit after install myself, but the light output on this car with these bulbs is incredible.
What kind of special retainer clips did you need for e90? BH7_3 , BH7_4 , BH7_5 etc. Next question I have: do I still need the can bus adapter if I have a pre lci e90 - 2008 model year?
I don't believe I ended up needing any special retainer clips, I was able to just use the metal retainer on the light that comes standard. As far as the can bus adapter I would assume you need it, unless you want to change the code in the car yourself. I still get a quick warning right when the car starts for a couple seconds, then it goes away even with the adapters.
If you have your headlight set for auto does it change the color every time the headlights turns on? if so i assume you would just have to turn on your lights manually ?
If I remember right, if there is more than a 5 sec delay between when the light is turned off and when the light is turned back on, it will default back to 6000k white. I generally always keep mine on that setting anyways, so I havent tested it much but I would imagine if you went from inside a building at the 3000k setting , to outside, then back inside a building, they would default back to 6000k upon re-entry. May be a question for Boslla though.
Yeah good question. Almost 1 year in, not one single issue with these bulbs has occurred. I checked the housings for heat and damage after several 3-4 hour long trips, no problem. Functionality wise no issue there either. I just switched through the colors last weekend just to play with them again, everything works great. From my end, this is a great product.
Not all cars' electric system are adapted for LED bulbs. Some LEDs will flicker in those cars that can't handle LEDs, or they won't work at all. CANBUS is some sort of "adapter" that prevents flickering and malfunctions when the vehicle is not adapted.
So these will fit fine? Bought philips ultinon essential led H7 bulbs which don't fit in my E91 LCI. The heatsink is too large and the H7 bulb clip is stuck it so that the bulb is facing upwards and fixed properly...
I had no issue with these in my e90 lci. The body of the bulb/heat sync is short enough to fit into the housing with clearance for the cap to close. I had to bend out the wire clip a little to get it to slip around the bulb body but it worked well.
@@FixedVaneDuramax Okay so you did not get any problems with bending? I haven't yet bended the clip, it would solve my problem but I'm worried if it would ruin my whole clip and it is not easy to get new ones because they are not sold separately.
I did not have any issue with mine no, they are a decently strong wire so they won't break when you bend them gently. Just go a little at a time and test fit until it works.
I installed mine today. When I start the car I get the message that there’s a problem with the low beam lights. Did you get the same error message? Lights work well but get that error message. Any guidance is appreciated 👍
@@FixedVaneDuramax Yes, as instructed in the video. The warning/error appears when I start the car. The lights work perfectly, but the error message comes up. Although, I must say, yesterday I did not get it. I will keep an eye on it and, if it keeps coming up, I will contact the manufacturer.
@@FixedVaneDuramax I've already returned them. They sent me two different kinds of capacitors and neither one worked. I ordered a different brand from Amazon and they work very well. Problem solved.
Depends if you have standard halogen bulbs in your e46 vs Xenons. If you have halogens then yes this same H7 kit should work from Boslla I would think.
It's funny how people still don't realise that halo stands for halogen and not because it's a circular light like an angel's halo. Funnily enough the rings are called angel eyes. But many years ago on some forum someone posted word halo and rest is history.
03:23 you mention the adapter but on the website it mentions clips, did you have to buy any of these or did that adapter come with the bulbs? Lights are dope I want to buy a pair
Thank you so much for reminding us that many of these have a removable adapter ring! I spent over an hour trying to seat by LED last night, totally forgot most are like the one you are showing!
Bruh... I struggled SO HARD on my other pair of LED's that I dislike and now I'm wondering if they had this too. wtf.
Sweet bulbs. Don't miss out the Christmas great deals on Boslla!!!
H7 or h8 ?
Just got mine in for my sons car today. Going to install them tonight.
Thanks for the review. I just ordered a set for my 2011 328i xdrive :-)
Hey did u revive them yet and how’d they fit ?
@@romes_ They fit very well. I did not make any modifications to the housing whatsoever. I just get an error message when I start the car. It goes away in a few seconds but it’s annoying.
@@DaSurfr they still holding up?
Can these bulbs also be used to replace the high-beams?
Is That h7 or h8 led Bulbs?

Hi guys , I am struggling to find this brand in uk , any tips where or how I can order in UK, please help
Did your car get a “tpms external interference” fault? Mine did, how do you fix??

Nice Job! Do the Led lights make the bulb light come on in the dash. I replaced my fog lights and my car thinks my lights are out. I may get resistors
Great video! Do you happen to know the dimensions of the bulb, I have a similar bulb and want to make sure I can close the headlight cover with no clearance issues. Also did you get any error light on dash with these?
What bulbs are these? I'm looking for something that I can still put the back cover on without modifications
Is it fit for e65?
Just to be sure and letting others trying to use this know, the specific type for the 2010 BMW 328i should be the H7 version of it, correct?
Yes good catch! You do indeed need the H7 version of the bulb.
@@mufasagoesviraltv5266 boslla carries H7 version, and I was able to install it without much issue on our bmw 328i
@@Moochbox i asked if they did on amazon and they said they didn't

You posted this video nearly a year ago. How did they work out long term? Was it an issue having the cooling fans covered through the summer?
Yeah good question. Almost 1 year in, not one single issue with these bulbs has occurred. I checked the housings for heat and damage after several 3-4 hour long trips, no problem. Functionality wise no issue there either. I just switched through the colors last weekend just to play with them again, everything works great. From my end, this is a great product.
Does it work on the pre lci too? E90 2006? With original halogeen headlights????
The pre-lci e90s with halogen lights also use h7 bulbs so I would assume so!
Diode dynamics sells just the H7 LED bulb. Why you need the fan and can bus?
Not all cars' electric system are adapted for LED bulbs. Some LEDs will flicker in those cars that can't handle LEDs, or they won't work at all. CANBUS is some sort of "adapter" that prevents flickering and malfunctions when the vehicle is not adapted.
Hey man it’s kinda late but how did you upgrade the rings?
They are a plug in replacement bulb. Lux V7 I believe.
Does this work for the 2011 bmw 328i?
Depending on the lighting package of the car yes. If you have standard halogen headlights and housings this is what you need.
im looking for bulb for this car but its h8, car holds h7

Thank you for sharing. The video is great. 👍
I have the bmw E90) facelift 2010 with halogen can i use the h8 angel eye?
You need the halogen LCI V3 preferably from lux
What bulb brand did you go with when you upgraded the halos to LED?
OmgIts Brian These halos are from Lux. No complaints so far.
is it posible to get to those from the engine bay instead?
Yeah probably, but its pretty tight and not super easy to see what you're doing from the top.
Lol so easy to remove the tire and guard.
hows the longevity now?
Have been perfect since Day 1. No complaints to date.

Depends if you have standard halogen bulbs in your e46 vs Xenons. If you have halogens then yes this same H7 kit should work from Boslla I would think.
So, how did these hold up?
6-7 months later they have been perfect!
did you need the clips?
Are you referring to the adapter plate? If so yes you will need that as well to hold the bulb in place.

I was able to use what was provided with the lights, I did not have to order any additional clips
Code it bro like I did and you should not need any Decoders or Resistors with led
How did you do that? I installed LED for the angel eyes and they freaking flicker when I start the car.
Is it fit for e65?
