Hi
Can anyone share experience of swapping out the interior lights for LEDs?
I’ve read mixed reviews, but then came across thus box set on EBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PREMIUM-BMW-E85-E86-COUPE-Z4-2002-2008-INTERIOR-FULL-KIT-SET-BULBS-XENON-WHITE-/132522960967

Any thoughts?
 
I used this type in footwell, got them 2 years ago still fine

some like the below for the overhead lights

then just some cheap wedge ones for in the cubby hole and glove box
 
So far so good. That said, anyone know how to take out the central compartment light, seems tricky...
 
Here's some pics, before & after. Only done drivers footwell as I can get into the passenger side in the garage:

Ah
I quite like the idea of getting a coloured led fir the central compartment firm here - https://www.ledperf.co.uk/pack-interior-full-led-pure-white-for-bmw-z4-e86-p-3939.html
If I can figure out how to remove it...
 
From the photos, they definitely give a clearer, brighter light. Rather then the usual dim glow from the fitted bulbs
