HID Fog Question

ramellis65 · 10-05-2015, 12:28 PM

Ok so i am not going with LED because i have no one around me to code it and i like to do things myself. I ordered the oem bmw chrome turn signal bulb for my 428xi gran coupe. Here is my question with hid. I want to get fogs to match my stock xenon halo and headlight. I guess the good temp to go with is 5000k. My next question is if i get the xenon kit i will just need those resistors for error cancelling correct. I did the same thing got the hid kit and those resistors you install with the hid on my 2012 audi a4 and didnt have any problems.

Correct, just get CANBUS ready HIDs.

I'd avoid putting HIDs on the car, people have killed their FEMs in the past: http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1023920
