  • Installed Akkon LED headlight assemblies into my 2016 LCI 328i BMW
    These are a great option for those looking for a newer look to their F30 BMWs. Easy to install and they fit the LCI model with a just moving the harness over a little.

    I just installed these on my 2014 F30 and they work great! I did not need to code these. It was a like for like swap and they fired right up. The LED brightness is insane compared to the halogen OEM headlights. I am completely happy with these. The DRL is also very bright as well. I bought the black housing without the smoke tint and they are badass!
    They are a pain in the ass to install. Dropping the bumper sucks and lining these up were tough but they are in. I recommend a pro body shop that is willing to install these headlights to do the work they will charge about 500-600$ to install in California. I spoke to Akkon directly regarding the quality and any type of DRL or LED failure problems and they said not on this particular model. I’ve heard a lot of bad reviews so I was a little skeptic.
    I also just ran my car through a car wash and there was no moisture accumulation at all in housing. I did add the clear PPF for freeway driving being that this is my daily commuting vehicle. It’s a 2014 328d F30. This car is awesome on gas and is pretty quick when needed. I definitely recommend one of these for commuting.
    Hope this helps anyone wanting to buy these headlights.

    Hey how’s its going I need your help!! So I think we have the same car… I have a 2016 F30 with the whole LCI headlight setup… accident damaged the headlights so I need a replacement but shessh LCI oem are expensive especially from dealership 2500$ + labor… looking to possibly get these.. so even though they state they are not for the 2016 the headlights can still be installed?? Also do the lights come with the modules?? Or you have to buy that separate?? Any insight appreciated

    • @pnwbmw8389
      @pnwbmw8389  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      These will fit the LCI - a clip must be removed on the passenger side headlight harness to move the harness close enough to plug in. The headlights do come with modules and there should be zero coding required. These are LED only and don't have any bulbs in them.
