LED License Plate lights

AU335 · 01-22-2008, 03:05 PM

Just got my OEM LED license plate lights in this weekend. What a difference!!! Amazing how much light it puts out...and the look of the lights on Montego is SICK!!!

Here is a side by side (Left -New LED, Right- OEM)

Here is both installed!!

ironjw · 01-22-2008, 03:16 PM

ALPINE6SPD · 01-22-2008, 03:25 PM

hmmm...

People can read my plate all they want. I dont care. Looks 1000x better than stock though

continentalg5 · 01-22-2008, 03:49 PM

Did you get these directly from BMW or a third party vendor?

sejoon85 · 01-22-2008, 03:51 PM

yea i dont really understand either... upgrading license plate lights.

Well as long as the owner likes it!

How did you get those OEM led license plate to work?

I believe it´s no quite easy, it is not just plug and play.

Great job!

P.S.: This guy had some "work" to made this possible.

Those aren't the OEM LED tag lights. The ones he has are brighter and were made for him by a member.

Bimmer325 · 01-23-2008, 08:29 AM

will attempt to make my LED light to work using OEM BMW part.

lovemyBimmer · 01-23-2008, 10:25 AM

nice! so you say they are OEM...so it's just plug and play??? no resistors needed?? any errors?? mind share'n the part #???

billspreston · 01-23-2008, 10:27 AM

Nice! I have the ones JLevi sells, they are plug in play as well. So much better than those yellow colored lights!

KnIgHtCoM · 01-23-2008, 11:35 AM

The pictures above are from my car. They are indeed BMW OEM LED's. You need to use a resistor (25W 30-Ohm) to prevent it throwing a bulb-out error code in I-Drive. Check out this thread for more info: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=107908

Congrats on the install AU335. They look great!

EHDEN · 01-23-2008, 01:01 PM

ZJP · 01-23-2008, 01:33 PM
