Anyone have a malfunction when switching from halogen to HID? If so what did you do to fix it?

[Kendricks f30]

I bought eagle eyes and I'm pretty sure I blew a bulb because of a resistance issue. Anyone know what resistors to buy for this fix

Coding I believe fixes any issue with slapping an HID into a reflector. Provided of course, you bought a good kit and not of of those $40 ebay kits.

I bout a set of Eagle eyes they were 500 bucks from protuninglab. Im new to bmw and don't know anything about coding and not sure if anyone around my area does. I live in Vermont it's kind of spotty with a reliable tech.

Not much to learn yourself, plenty of help in the coding section. Just have to code out cold and warm checks for HID if I remember correctly

Im more nervous that anything. Feel like I'm opening pandoras box. Don't want to screw up anything else while I'm poking around in there...

What software do I need to purchase to do some coding?

[Adamr916]

The only thing you have to buy is a $15 cable off of eBay, hit up Shawnseridan for the software. There are countless guides out there for coding, not much can go wrong if you follow the guides. That's how I learned, and I've done 3 other cars aside from mine without any issue.

I successful have done the conversion from halogen to HID H7. When I first hooked it up, it was inconsistent and not turning on after a minute. The only that made this work was warning canceller/ Antiflicker connector kit...... I also changed the DRL (PW24W) to LED and the accent light to LED (BA9 64132 H6W).

later on I coded out hot and cold monitoring for the lights
