Headlights OEM BMW or Bosch
So the headlights on my BMW are so much better than headlights I’ve had in previous cars. They illuminate the road so much better.
Pros: illuminate road better
Vehicle:
BMW
Had a 1975 Merc a few years ago and I swear the Bosch headlights were original
Pros: original, durable
You have late Bosch headlights, in Europe they came with plastic diffusers, ZKW headlights and Bosch headlights with projectors had glass ones.
Vehicle:
BMW
Definitely not the most popular choice but I had beat oem headlights and couldn\u2019t see a damn thing and you\u2019re not gonna catch me spending $500+ for bosch\u2019s just to be oem+ that don\u2019t improve visibility. Honestly pretty happy with the look and I really like the taillights.
Pros: happy with the look
Cons: not the most popular
Being that you went with the EU spec (recently just bought a pair from an EU model and had chat GPT verify the part numbers lmao) is there any issues with OTA updates?
Here\u2019s one, my 21 BMW 218 has quite high dims. I regularly get flashed to dim my light when they are dimmed. There is no dial / setting on the car that I\u2019m aware of to adjust this. I asked BMW and they said I\u2019d need to leave it in (which will cost \u20ac300 or something ridiculous).
Pros: high dims, regularly flashed
Cons: no setting to adjust
Vehicle:
BMW
Any BMW. You have to take the side fender and various front engine apart just to replace a headlight! Dealer says they'll replace both for $2000.
Cons: difficult headlight replacement
Vehicle:
BMW X3
I bought a used 2021 BMW 5 series. I live in a rural area without streetlights, so it’s pitchblack on curvy 50mph roads lined with trees dropping limbs and large animals crossing. These headlights are dangerous. Can’t see without my high beams, yet there are oncoming cars every 3 seconds. I’m left driving blind half the time.
Cons: dangerous, poor visibility, needs high beams
Vehicle:
BMW
I have bosche oem lights and they have very poor performance at night.
Cons: poor night performance
Can't believe this is a "sealed unit" that managed to get condensation inside from driving through a puddle. What is BMW's QC coming to?
Cons: condensation inside, poor quality control
Vehicle:
BMW
