Greetings all.

I've posted here before about the so famous Angel Eye DRL issue(The rings turn yellow due to the LED burning in). I tried looking for my exact headlights all over the internet but they are nowhere to be found. I found a local shop that usually repairs these burn affected DRLs but they could not do anything about my Angel Eye rings. This is because I tried repairing it home and making it worse(silly me). Now I am pretty much forced to buy new ones but since I can't quite find my exact model I sought replacements and I came across something similar to the ones I have. However, I am unsure if they will work as my headlights do so I am politely asking: Will these headlights work if I purchase and install them? Will they need coding?(95% sure they do). I wish to note that I have the Adaptive LED, Anti Glare, Adaptive Cornering Lights, High Beam Assist and whatnot. Pretty much everything the headlight can have. I will link some photos down below so you can share your opinion. Thank you all.

These are the ones that I'm looking to buy:

If you need additional information please let me know.

Why are you taking chances with Chinese knock-offs when European eBay and other European internet sites are full of used OEM lights for your car almost at the same price as knock-offs? Or you have your mind set on replacement headlights?

Here is the example out of Germany:

At least you can chase the European sellers if the lights are off or something. I'd not trust the knock-offs as there is absolutely no guarantee how long the LED's will last (tend to live very short life in most cases).

I'm forced to look for a replacement headlight due to the broken light tube, but since I live in Canada I must obtain a North American adaptive LED headlight and not Euro Spec unfortunately. So, my options are very limited compared to yours.

First of all,
Thank you for your response. In case you haven't noticed I appear to be a little desperate about my issue. The chinese headlights are something I found to be somewhat similar to what I have. I have seen multiple headlights online as you have shared. However, I had another thread created about how many numbers do I have to match to have the headlight working as intended on my car. To which you replied:
"Interesting... The part numbers are the EUR version of AHL LED headlights. These are completely different that I have on my North America spec LCI car.

To answer your question about "-##" at the end - this is the Revision number of the specific component. In your case, the -03 means that your headlights are Revision 3, and somehow they are different/improved compared to -01s or -02s. I'd be careful with considering potentially obsolete parts as they could have some flaws that required adjustment with the next revisions."

In the link you have provided, the last 3 digits do not match. I am assuming it will not fit the options I have on my headlights. This is what I meant when I said "I am desperate".. so I thought to myself: "I have to resort to these cheapskates...". So my question to you is: If I were to buy the headlight you have sent me, will it work? To answer your question, no, I have not set my mind for replacements but I forgot to mention that I have the light tube broken in more places, just like you(this is what the shop stated when I came in with the car). Sorry to hear you are having a hard time with your F34. I know how hard it must be. What do you suggest I do? Change both headlights with OEM replacements(and different identification number)? If so, do I need to code them? I am clueless as to what to do next.

Yes, I now recall your other post.

My personal opinion - take the chance with the best OEM choice out there instead of 3d party headlights. I have the similar dilemma, but I feel that used or new OEM is the best choice with min risk. We are stuck with headlights that have the most options in them (except my car does not have Anti Glare option coded). If we had basic headlights, 3d party replacement would be the choice.

I'm in the process of searching for a used OEM light for myself.

Here is one out of Spain that matches your part number exactly (+ 25 Euro for DHL shipment to Romania):

These guys in Germany have both, Left and Right:

Note how it is a mix of Rev 2 for the Left and Rev 3 for the Right and headlights came off the same car.

Good luck.

I see now. Thank you for clearing my path. All the information is clear to me now. I will be purchasing OEM headlights as suggested. After the swap, is coding necessary? I am unsure of this..

Thank you again for all the help. I hope you will find a suitable replacement for your headlights soon.

If you match the main part number, but not the Revision (2 vs 3 in your car now), I doubt there will be any coding required.
