Has anyone done this on a non M E70 X5?
Coders can this be done on a 40d LCi?
Thanks in advance!

Re: Adaptive LED retro fit
Have you got all of the hardware - I was led to believe it was more than just light units.
The official kit was just over £6k when I looked several years ago and I decided it wasn’t worth it at that time. Might be easier to source all of the bits nowadays.

Hi
It may be worth contacting Jason At BWChiptune as I know when I was down there over a year ago they were looking at changing an E70 with xenon over to LED Headlights.
You can find his contact details in thee53 performance section

Re: Adaptive LED retro fit
From my understanding you need the folllowing,
Adaptive Led Headlights x 2
Retrofit loom x 1
High pressure washer jets x 2
FRM3 x 1
Coding session
I can’t find anyone with the kit fitted on a non M powered E70.
I know Jason at BW Chiptune so I will have a word with him guy’s.
Meanwhile if anyone has any information I would be grateful!

Taken from elsewhere, allbeit it’s from Gixxers X5m

Ps
I think the headlight shape is different on the X5m hence the retrofit is possibly not available on the non m models unless a full front end modification is carried out, ie wings, bumper & bonnet
