headlight bulb replacement

[gizmowp]

Howdy

i hink im the only person on the forum that has had bulb issues...funny tough all them seem to go out in fairly rapid succession. could be the first time they have been replaced.

i had to buy the tail lamp bulbs only at agenets because they were only ones that fit...

my question is my 1 front headlight bulb has just gone now as well. i want to replace them with normal nice bright ones. Are they all universal or do i have to buy from agents again...

i am sure they're universal?

no one?

Depends what type of bulb it is

 

[gizmowp]

think its just the stock bulb? E46

 

[andrewbuch]

E46 should have a H7 bulb for the headlights & high beams. Can get them at any spares shop. 12V 55W H7

I had a light bulb go out on my E90, bmw users their diagnostic machine to change a light bulb. My previous car (Peugeot 307) kept burning out light bulbs, it was a common fault with the wiring harness. I'm no electrician, but i would check the condition of the fuse for the lights.

FYI

the H7 bulbs worked, fitted it no issues,.

Best bet is to buy H7 nightbreakers from autostyle or midas or where ever. Best looking halogen around.

There is a value for money upgrade; looks, safety and night driving improvement.
I have for dims, brights and fogs, all H1
If only they made for parks?

Yeah its awesome bulbs but I prefer the cool blue ones in my brights, cheaper and a bit more white-ish colour allthough not as good light output it must be said. What car do you have? H1's all round, how cool is that:thumb:
