I just replaced the parking bulb with a led from JDM Toys.

This is what comes in the package.

looks awesome obert! this is making me want to ditch the halogens for similar setup. Would you be able to link the custom headlight/housing you used ? I can't seem to find one on the ONEighty website.

I read that they might not sell or do these retro any more because they started doing the BMW led style retro.

I picked these up from a memeber.

I bought led lights for the halogens but I don't think I will be able to use them because there is a lot of stuff inside the housing already from the retro. The high beams were not even hooked up and I was not getting a out bulb warning light.

I will take pics of the key hole delete and led DRL's.

Just installed led DRL's. Got my car coded with sport plus mod and other goodies. No more flashing from the led lights I installed.

Just ordered some new white high beam bulbs, M sport pedal set and foot rest, and a air scoop and filter.

Coming along nicely! I also have an f30 328 base model and was considering coding my car to get the sport+ mode.

How are you liking it compared with the regular sport mode? Do you plan on adding a tune to pair with the sport+ coding?

Thanks

Unless the sport plus changes something different within the ecu the only difference between sport and sport plus that I can see is it automatically turns into ft traction control and you get the added sport plus on the dash and display.

It is fun to switch it to that mode

As far as a tune I would love to go all out and replace the down pipe and full exhaust and get a tune but not sure if I am willing to spend the money on that.

It is fast enough for my DD and I would love to do a full M body kit with dual exhaust with it lowered and new wheels first.

Are those the pedals off Amazon? If so, the best 30 bucks I've spent, very surprised how well they fit and the quality.

Your build is coming along nicely!

I don't think they are off Amazon. I picked them up from someone on here.

Thanks for that video! I can't wait to do the install. I am a single dad with a 2yr so I need to figure that all out to be able to take my time and do it right.

It will be nice when my hands are full and I won't have to fish for my keys.
