Have the V3's and are very pleased with them. A doddle to fit as well once you get the ballast and the colour change switch unit (on yours) inside the headlight housing they are plug and play.

They are great as I have them on my M3 but I asked Bimmian if they would work and they say they can bring up dash errors.  Here is the reply i got...

Hi Andrew,

The LUX is the same base lock in install as this set purchased. Namely it replaces the H8 halogen bulb. So yes it will FIT. The only issue could be with error codes. The X6 is a bit more finicky with that and the LUX has no provision to adjust this IF that is an issue. The WeissLicht version is modular and a larger error canceler can be introduced if needed. The LUX it either works or not.

But they are similar in design of the BULB and base, just different in execution of the final output. Both use the CREE LED's so about the same brightness. The LUX having the ability to slightly change the color variation is it's only difference but is not a large variation IMO.

Regards

Thanks,

All the HID equipped cars up to the LCI version use H8 lamps for the rings.  Yours should have LED rings already?

If you look at mac1206 headlights on his 2014 x6 post (just picked up my new x6) the headlight are yellow.
CONFUSED.

OK in that case the few around here must all have full LED headlights fitted as an option which do come with them.
