Smile 2014- F34 320d GT Headlight

Hi all,
I recently bought a BMW F34 320d GT 2014 model.
I am planning to change the headlight of my car from halogen to something better. I am having trouble finding the right thing. After enquiring a lot, people recommended either the LED headlight or the Laser Headlight. Frankly I am fine with any of those 2 but would like your suggestions as well.

Facing one more problem, Online I can only see LED or LASER headlight for the F30 models, can't find any for the F34 320d model cars. If anyone has any suggestions please recommend.

Thanks!!!

Changing headlights is a major, and expensive, undertaking. Changing to LED bulbs is easy and cheap. The necessary coding is simple with Bimmercode.

I'd give a try to Billfitz's suggestion to get the feel for LED upgrade at affordable (very) price.

However, if you have fairly deep pockets, then LED OEM headlights are the next best thing. I have the Adaptive LED headlights in my car and the brightness and road coverage are just perfect (not like F30 headlights). If I were you, I'd start looking for used LED headlights from similar market (RHD UK, Hiong Kong, Indonesia, India, Japan, Macau, Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Australia etc). Then you'd need to look into wiring on car side.

These would be the part numbers to look for (non-adaptive and adaptive LED, RHD):

AFAIK, there are NO OEM LASER headlights for F34.
