Indeed it is!

Harness ran, but few things. Mine is a RHD car. Regular Bi-Xenons. So the FRM Modules on the right side, and ground ring, A14 on the instructions connects to X1108 which of course is on the left side. So I'll have to find my own earth.

I haven't been to check as its night time here. Are my Left and right colors for wires ends at the headlights now in reverse order?

I.e.
A1-A5 are on my left headlight
A15-A19 on my right headlight.

That's still OK or is this going to get ballsed up!??

Beam angle isn't of concern atm, I believe we can sort that.. but I wonder if RHD harness part number is different to LHD? Hopefully someone has the answer!

You are just sending power wires to each headlight - it should not matter, it's not like one headlight would ever 'shut off' completely. You should be FINE with the instructions as-is.

OK i'm going in!
:thumbup:

More progress. Headlights are now in and mounted, wired up and they work minus high beam.

Will get FRM3 in along with FRM wiring shortly and add the fuses. They look incredible!

My updated FRM3 arrives today, hoping to get it coded tonight.

Fingers crossed I can finally end this project!!

Awesome news guys! The new FRM should clear everything up for you.
I absolutely love mine.
:thumbup:

OK so I have finished wiring in the FRM3 and installed fuses.

Here's what's happening.

The LED rings no longer light up. When they do they flicker.
Low beam works.
High beam doesn't work.
Amber running light works.


So with older FRM everything worked minus high beam and amber running light.

I notice on my existing FRM pins I had some cables already in the slots where the instructions asked for pin 3 and pin 37 to have A8 and A9 connections. So I removed the existing wires and taped them up.

I suspect I won't know much till coding is done, but with mine being X5 35D the wiring is little different?

New FRM arrived today and is now installed. I am t-minus 15 minutes until coding...fingers and toes crossed everyone!!! This has been one hell of a long project.

HIGH BEAMS WORK!!!!

The moral of the story is...unless you have a 2013 or 2014 car, YOU NEED TO REPLACE THE FRM module.

BMWs directions are completely useless with regards to FRM replacement. Just replace the damn thing and don't waste time and money like I did.

I used the old LED wiring from the old retrofit instructions, it works great.

THIS PROJECT IS FINALLY DONE....on to enjoying the car!
