Help with lightbulbs
 

Dear All:

Need help with lightbulbs.

1- I have the running lights (they are always on, on the headlight closer to the grill), they are very yellow/brownish and I tried to replace them to look whiter and not only (do not laugh here) could not figure out which ones they are, therefore not able to find a replacement. Please also recommend which one.

2- Where and which are the bulbs recommended to replace the fog light bulbs. I checked one of the links on this thread ( www.xoutpost.com/articles/x5/lights/9510-diy-replacing-fog-lamp-bulbs-bmw-x5.html[/url]
but the links there are no longer available.

Thanks in advance for your help.

PS> I have xenon light, but the yellow/brownish are the center ones.

I have 2001 X5, they had me take out the fog light bulbs, and found out they are H3 (also they have H11), make sure you double check which ones yours has.
For high beam I ordered 9005 in xenonmatch plus.
Customer service is very responsive. If you have any questions, just email them.
Hope this helps.

The running light operate the headlamps at lower voltage so they will always look yellowish.
