Help with installing LED light bulb...

AspireApex · 12-14-2018, 02:07 PM

Hey guys,
Attempting to install my LED lights into my F30. I've gotten all the coding done, just need to physically install them but I'm a little confused as to how to install the bulbs onto the holder in my headlight.

My headlight is the DEPO angel lights, so I'm not sure if it different than the stock type, however, I've attached a picture of the LED as well as the socket.

Thank you so much!

That's not an H7 socket. Ask DEPO.

DEPO installs H7 bulbs into that socket with a clip. The clip has wire connection stuff built in, so you wont be able to just use the clip with the new LED bulb. Two little ears on either side of the clip secure under each of the silver screw heads you can see on the socket.
This clip 'looks' like it would work.

What does the bulb that you removed look like?
