- NOTE: I am not running OEM headlights in this video. I have the USR DEPO Angel Eyes installed. You can find more info about these from the following:

My low beam bulb went out on one side so I just decided to replace both so the colors would match. These are h7 bulbs and I am installing some Sylvania ZXE bulbs that I just quickly picked up at a local auto store. There are many other options and I would recommend researching via bimmerpost for your F30 if you have DEPO headlights as well.

Your volume levels are all over the place here. Make sure when editing to normalize your audio peaks to -6DB
Thanks for the tip! Ill def try to make sure to keep this in mind!
Matthew Wong Sure thing mate. It'll seem too quiet, but -6DB is a standard for broadcast television and media. It'll make sure your video appears professionally balanced, and also it will ensure that you don't annihilate headphone users watching your stuff. 👍🏼
Women: You don’t have to pull off the wheel. Turn the wheel to the opposite side and pull off covering. Then fish your hand in and remove the bulb. Watch the front lamp as you replace the new bulb. Use your tactile senses and this converts to an easier less laborious task.

How about for the high beam bulb so do I have to disassemble that frame on top to get to the covers for it you have a video for it thanks buddy
Hey man, i had a question. I have these same headlights for my 13 bmw 328i and i have a parking lamp malfunction. Any chance you know the bulb i need to change out?
Try pulling the bulb out and look at the back. I found mine corroded over time and needed a bit of sanding down to make a better connection. Otherwise it might be the bulb.
your video is great and can be even better if you lower the volume of the music.......
Thanks for the feedback! Im going to make sure all my future videos are better done with my audio levels!
Great vid
How to change the High beam? The access from top seems to be gone.
If you have replaced your headlights with Depo lights then the access point will be behind the wheel well. You will need to follow all the steps in this video to access it. The high beam is also from the rear I believe. It is a standard h7 bulb as well.
Matthew Wong the high beams are not accessible with the lights installed :( they're on the side of the light facing the radiator/grill. see this pic, it's the left access panel

have you found the solution to change the high beam ? I have depo on my f30 and i need to replace high beam.
@@dorianwittemberg9496 Hello, unfortunately the only way is to take out the entire headlight.
@@emshomar thanks, the halogen lights system was much easier to change
I recently got depo lights installed. Do the low beams seem dim to you? Hard to see at night in certain areas. Wonder if LEDs or hids is worth it
.
They are slightly dim, LED's would definitely make it closer to Xenons
@@MatthewWong are you running Leds or Hids?
@@daillishpnoy I am currently running stock h7 bulbs. I am considering switching to an LED kit.
Do you know if I'd be able to pop in a halogen to LED converter in these headlights as long as they're H7 sized?
Should be fine. You should check that it will not throw an error code with the normal halogen headlights (stock first). If they don't then they should work fine. There are a couple guys on bimmerposts on the Depo Light thread that are running LED bulbs if you want to research particular types/ brands.
Why are you running halogen bulbs on those lovely projector lamps. Get a hid kit or led bulb in there 😁 f the halogens
Haha I’m thinking about LED bulbs. Do you have any recommendations? I don’t wanna drill into the back of my housing.
How long did you have your Depo lights before running into issues?
Thinking about replacing my ugly halogen lights lol
I had the first batch and saw issues with the Angel eyes going out when it rained or got colder. USR updated the LED component after the first batch and sent me the updated controller boards I have not installed yet.
Def prefer these over the eBay style ones unless your going to LED www.umnitza.com/browse-by-car-model/bmw/3-series/f30-3-series-bmw/bmw-f30-led-headlight-dtm-angel-eyes.html but those are pricey.
Hi, do they still sell these updated led boards?
Dam really wish i saw this video before buying the headlights! the light are so dim and are hard to see at night. trying to change it to led or hid but have no clue how to change it
I believe theres several threads on bimmerpost on how to switch to HID kits. Some guys are also running LED kits as well.
Would you happen to know how to get rid of the "Low Beam on both right and left error code"
So depending on your batch you can email USR. Are your headlights working at all? It might just be the LED modules. Otherwise it might take some debugging. I would check the bulbs to see if they are working also
Thanks for the Info but, the Music is crazy Loud🤯😖
Stupod design by bmw taking a wheel off to chamge a bulb what a joke .
I believe you should be able to do it just be removing the slot on the wheel well, and by turning your wheels to max left or right. I just removed so I could film the process. No way to get the camera in there without removing wheel.
I have a 2016 328i and getting the Low Beam Malfunction message. However, all the lights are functioning, unless I hit a bump then the light goes off, then the message comes back.
How can I clear this?
Do you have stock headlights or aftermarket? With my aftermarket I noticed that exact same thing would happen. I would pull my bulbs out and noticed that the connecting points (where the socket contacts the bulb to make a connection) were all corroded. I had to get a small Dremel and sand down the metal and I never got the issue again.
@@MatthewWong Stock.
I just went out there again.. so apparently the left headlight is not adjusting (aiming) after turning on. The right headlight does.
Is this a faulty module?
Who TF lays tools on their vehicle? Wish I could delete this video
