Well I upraded my dipped beams HID. See here http://z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=56909

This was the result



Then decided to try LED replacements to the main beams hoping to get better light output and retain the instant flash function but have very disapointed with the end result



As you can see the light pattern is not at all focused and a lot of light is thrown up and out

Compared to HIDs and thhe existing Halogens (=120% H7 55w)



So I think for now back to that and think again about upgrading the main beams to HID in the future

HID ktis aren't designed for flashing.

You might be better off with a halogen bulbs with a cooler colour temperature. I know Philips produce a 5000k halogen bulb.
