Yep. On certain F30 builds, there are two T25 bolts right where the warning triangle should be. However, on 2015s I've seen them replaced with plastic rivets.




You also need to detach the glow-in-the-dark emergency trunk release from the steel cable in order to completely remove the trunk-lid liner.

Just double checking.

I might just remove the emergency release, when I lock people in my trunk I don't want them to be able to get out

@ capt_slow
I would be very interested in the beam pattern behind the car and on the ground. Is the light distribution comparable with stock bulbs?

I'd say so (assuming you're referring to the reverse LED's)

I've been looking for the best reverse LED upgrade and had almost purchased some Weisslichts this afternoon when I thought about the flickering issue. Does anyone know if the system checks the reverse lamps with the same regularity as the turn signals? I don't mind the light show at startup but I'd prefer not to flash drivers behind me at night, and I'm totally unfamiliar with coding.

Thanks!

Believe the warm check interval is 3 minutes, regardless of use -- that is same for reverse as turn signals. Unfortunately, as has been discussed above, there is no way that the flicker due to the system warm checks can be eliminated without coding, which is really quite straight forward three items for each bulb.

ijdmtoy LEDs errors

20-005 CAN-bus Error Free 18-SMD-5050 PY24W 5200s LED Bulbs For Audi BMW Mercedes, etc Front Turn Signal Lights
[Color:Xenon White]

I purchased these and they do in fact throw up errors. Working with them now to try and return/replace. It's too bad because they actually look great especially light up at night. The color is just a hue off factory.



Also purchased these before which have the wrong base even though part # is the same... py24w.

http://www.khoalty.com/bmw-e90-e92-l...-led-bulb.html

You can't close the cover cap with these bulbs on a 15' 435gc but Khoalty thinks they should work and won't give a refund.

Thank you very much for any help!
AnhQuan420,

Sure; please try these to fill in for the XXX:
  • FRA_V for FRONT Turn signals in FEM
  • FRA_H for REAR Turn Signals in REM
  • RFS for REVERSE lights in REM

For the single _X_, it is either L for LEFT or R for RIGHT

So to code the right rear turn signal, go to REM:
  • FRA_H_R_KALTUEBERWACHNUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
  • FRA_H_R_WARMUEBERWACHNUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
  • FRA_H_R_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv

That should do it

Xin chao anhquan420

To be a bit more specific here is what you need to code:

Rear Turn Signal
REM / 3061 / FRA_H_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / FRA_H_L_WARMUERBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / FRA_H_L_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv
REM / 3061 / FRA_H_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / FRA_H_R_WARMUERBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / FRA_H_R_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv

Front Turn Signal
FEM_BODY / 3061 / FRA_V_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_ aktiv
FEM_BODY / 3061 / FRA_V_L_WARMUERBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
FEM_BODY / 3061 / FRA_V_L_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv
FEM_BODY / 3061 / FRA_V_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_ aktiv
FEM_BODY / 3061 / FRA_V_R_WARMUERBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
FEM_BODY / 3061 / FRA_V_R_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv

Reverse
REM / 3061 / RFS_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / RFS_L_WARMUERBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / RFS_L_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv
REM / 3061 / RFS_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / RFS_R_WARMUERBERWACHUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
REM / 3061 / RFS_R_IS_LED from nicht_aktiv to aktiv

Anyone install Weisslicht LED Reverse bulbs on F32?

Glad to have helped. I put LVL302VWY in my F30 reverse lights; suggest you ask Bimmian if that will work on your F32

HOPE THAT HELPS

The reverse lights are different. For F32 look for PW24W. I bought these off ebay and they work fine:

Question Coding F30 Flickering

Hey guys...newb here.

I just picked up a 2014 335xi and swapped all the incandescents with WeissLichts, front/rear turns, brake lights, reverse lights. They look pretty sweet so far, but I am getting the flickering mentioned previously.

The code was provided, and I have a usb to OBD cable, but what software is needed to code my ride from a Mac or PC?

Hey, guys. I've been looking for the Weisslicht WTS302RAY Amber Turn Signals for F30, but it appears they're out of stock on every single website.
Moreover I live in Europe and can't find a reseller here.
Is there an alternative which is sold in Europe?

Look on your local Amazon.com. Search for Philips, Osram and iJDMTOY brand. There's nothing special about Weisslicht. They appear to be seriously over-priced re-labled Asian bulbs.

Weisslicht are said to be error-free without using a Canbus adapter.
