NEW GROUP BUY IS HERE

This is a group buy for a full 20pc interior LED light set for the E70.

Each 20pc set includes
- 2 x 42mm festoon 8SMD 5050 bulbs
- 2 x T10 1SMD 5050 bulbs
- 8 x T10 5SMD 5050 bulbs
- 8 x T10 9SMD 5050 bulbs

All bulbs are CANBUS, meaning they simulate the resistance of the normal incandescent bulbs that are being replaced. This prevents any bulb check errors.

All bulbs emit a bright WHITE colored light.

Price
$45 - includes shipping in the US

Canadian residents add $10 for regular mail, or $20 for priority.

Rest of the world add $15 for regular mail, or $25 for priority.

This type of kit is typically sold for over $100.

If you're interested, just let me know. Payment won't be due until I have the bulbs in hand.

Once all 10 kits are spoken for, I will get them ordered and they should arrive in Denver within a week or so. After that, individual kits will be shipped to each buyer via Priority Mail.

Update: It looks like the 10 sets have all been spoken for. However, I am planning to place the order on Monday 12/16. As long as you tell me you want a set before then, you'll get one.

man where were you like 1 week ago!!!! i paid 67 bucks for 16 pieces

rennis · 12-12-2013, 04:15 PM

Just did mine a couple months ago or I would be all over this. Great upgrade.

For those of you who haven't done this before, I HIGHLY recommend picking up an interior trim removal kit before tackling this. The majority of the lamps are extremely easy to swap, but some are very difficult.

The lighting housings in the headliner (rear passengers) are a M'Fer to get out. Take your time with those, and definitely have a trim tool.

ECS has an installation guide on their site, as well as the tools if you need to buy them.

TD78 · 12-12-2013, 04:35 PM

Any kits for E71 and E92?

Thanks - I'm excited about installing them as well. I'll look into picking up a trim tool set.

I imagine most of the bulbs will be the same on the X5 and X6, but I can't say for sure. The E92 is probably a different mix of bulbs.

ivster · 12-12-2013, 06:45 PM

I will take a set!

ncraig · 12-12-2013, 11:35 PM

please count me for 1 more set for my friend's x6m, if you can get a set specifically for E71 that wouldn't be better if not I will just take another set of x5, I think the only difference is the tailgate light, E71 seems only have 1 bulb instead of 2 in E70.
