F31 pre Lci headlights

Hi all, I’m sure this has already been asked a thousand times but I can find a definitive answer.

I have a 2015 F31 320d, it’s my first bm, I love the car but I hate the halogen headlights and I would like to upgrade them. I have just fitted the Lci tail lights with the retro fit harness and then coded them.

Are there retro fit kits for oem headlights, whether it’s Xenon or led? Or do I go down the after market route? I don’t have a problem with the performance of the halogen headlights I’m just want something that looks better.

Any help, recommendations will be really appreciated.

Thanks

Chris

OEM will be expensive, a faff, coding and expensive... Did I say that twice?!

See what you can do with aftermarket or possibly LED bulbs?

All in you've got to keep it right for MOT time; therein lies the biggest issue really

FYI Chris there's a UK section here: https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/fo...412&order=desc

Might be best to ask in there so you get relevant answers from UK owners

I will have a look. Thanks for the reply.

It’s a bit of a minefield. Happy to go down oem route but I can’t find the right lights yet I have spoke to someone regarding retrofit cables and coding etc.

Cheers

Seems like people have had very good results with the Aftermarket LCI LED headlights on Aliexpress.
