When I look at pictures you took of the LUX bulb, I wonder and would appreciate you to clarify. You said it was difficult but did you manage to put the cap back in place, as is, or did you make a cut into it?
I understand that you elected to place the power module & fuse outside of the headlight assembly. To do that you must have made a cut in the plastic wall, right?
So far, any issue with the bulb? Still working OK? Thanks again.
The bulb assembly fits with no problems. There was no cut made in the cap for the bulb assembly or to accommodate the wires. You simply just press the cap down hard enough and twist to lock it with the wires running out from underneath the cap.
The bulbs are still working fine and looking great. I have the same LUX bulbs, an earlier version, in my M3 for a year now and no problems either.
