Hope this works, link for fog lights but all bulbs from same supplier and very happy with the service and results
 
Nice uniform look to the lights now - hopefully not too bright for oncoming traffic?
And error free as well? Says so on the website, but I've seen those claims before turn out to be BS...
 
Totally error free no nasty warning on the dash :D Have tested the lights in dark with no discernible annoyance ro oncoming traffic ,but had not tweeked the alignment so did not expect this to be an issue. There is a nice colour match to my factory fit xenons so all in all very pleased with the result.
What's next on the to do list ?
 
looks good! i changed my side lights for LED and loved the look, sadly tho they kept failing :( (think it was because 1 headlight has small crack so let moisture in, but the other is sealed fine and still failed, must be cheap LED i bought)

i want LEDs again but want to make sure its decent set
 
mine as LED number plate lights and I really don't like them, they are far too bright, all the floor is lit up too

There are a set of side lights enclosed in a glass dome see link below should solve your problem of blowing the lights ??? Worth a look these were the ones I fitted

ohhhh they look perfect, the 1s i used were the cheap 1s off ebay with the leds attached to the side but open to the elements and after a few months they corroded and started flickering, i got a few diff sets and ALL did the same after a little while :(


thanks again im gonna order a set now :D
 
Looks great on all the lights except the number plate. Those are way too bright, directs the eye to the one piece not to look at, lights up a huge pool of road behind the car and potentially makes it catch the eye of police
 
Aftermarket leds in the number plate housings look rubbish. I've been there and done it and did not like it.

The solution was to buy some OEM units from bmw, meant for a 1 series but fit the Z4 perfectly. Theres a guide on here.
