Our interior LED kit from Ziza covers all the cabin lights on the E70. HERE is a link to it.

Thank you ECS.

I'd like to know what error free corona bulbs you have as well. I want the lights on the front of the car including the fogs. If you can please point me to what works, i will buy them all from you.

I appreciate your assistance.

The Bimmian ones don't work-- they flicker like crazy... at least on a '12

For your fogs, currently Ziza (my big LED provider) doesn't have an LED H11 bulb, I'll send my contacts with them an Email requesting information in case they have one coming soon.

ok.

what about a non-LED solution that will work? I want to update the yellow-ish rings with a more current model look.

i'd like to replace as many of the bulbs on the outside as well but if there is no LED option, at least a "white" version for the fogs and coronas.

For the fogs, we have some Ziza standard bulbs which produce clean white light.

The "Super White" bulbs (found HERE) produce a light color similar to that of a 6000k HID bulb

The "Platinum White" bulbs (found HERE) produce a light color similar to that of a 7500k HID bulb.

But personally I run the super yellow Zizas in my fogs, the yellow light helps with road visibility in bad weather.

we're getting there... so do you have any solution for the coronas in lieu of LED?

also, what temp are the factroy headlights? i've thought about using yellow, but think id rather match the temp of the bulb to the headlights.

thanks for your help, im looking forward to my order!

The "Super White" is rather close to the factory HID color in the E70.

For the corona lights, one of my parts guys managed to turn off some of our options by mistake, long story short I did a little yelling and he's correcting his mistake. Below is a photo of them in our E70 to give you an idea of the color out put of the RD LED conversion. Which is available HERE.

I paid $20 total for full LED interior bulbs from a chinese seller on eBay, same bulbs used as in all the other kits, just less that $1 for a pair of bulbs. One of my favorite mods so far.

FYI I did my LED kit last night (man it's hard to get those rear dome assemblies out, I cursed a lot during their removal). So, I used this seller as well, the bulbs look fine however the center dome does not work, and the rear domes flicker like crazy. Yes I also blew the glove box fuse so I hope to replace that today to see if the bulb will work in there.

The nice thing is the seller seems very cooperative and is already sending out a replacement kit, hopefully the new bulbs work. Coming from China it took less then a week to get to WA.

I would recommend being careful when prying the center dome assy out, as I somehow pierced my fingernail when doing so. Ouch. The rear domes are a bitch like everyone says, if it helps the metal clips are on the rear side, to give you a place to start prying.

The bulbs that are in look great though....

ha that was my first post - i'm a lurker I suppose
