New aftermarket led foglights.

I was wondering if anybody has any experience with these aftermarket fog lights. They are available from Bavauto. https://www.bavauto.com/bmw-fog-ligh...-sedan-4517543 They look very similar to the LCI led fogs.

Yeah I saw direct oem replacement I was just stunned to see they were only 60 a pair when everywhere else they are 300. I suppose because they aren't bmw oem or w/e manufacturer they use for them.

Perhaps I was a bit hasty with my respons.
I took a better look at the website and it’s quite misleading. In the description it says:
“Completed set included Left and Right sides
OEM direct replacement
Integrated LED
OEM Left # 63177315559
OEM Right # 63177315560”
But somewhere else i found that the brand is winjet, wich isn’t oem but aftermarket (as you stated). I have no experience with that brand, never heard of it in europe. Maybe they are more common in the us?
I have those foglights installed but i’m pretty sure the brand is Bosch...
Sorry for the wrong info, I was fooled by the (imo) false advertising.

Yeah it's rather confusing but I'm gonna pull the trigger. Winjet is a no name brand here in the states I've never heard of it so I'm guessing the quality might not be there. We will find out if they are decent it would be a good option for those of us who have the halogen fogs.

Not sure if you'd have to mess with the harness for these to work with halogen ones, if you do get them let us know

Speaking from my Audi days(2008-2015), Winjet is not a new company. Quality is not bad but not close to OEM.

For $60 vice $300, you can't go wrong.
