Hi Trailor

are the bulbs for the fog lights the same size as Hi beam and low beam?
and how did you install them? did you have to remove the bumper or anything?

i can only speak for those of us with sports models and p1 package because some of the bulbs differ if you have a luxury model i think.

the fog lights are H7's which are the same as our low beams. i havent changed out the high beams so i can't give you a definitive answer on that but i would assume they are H7's as well. the fogs can be accessed through the surrounding grill via 3 torx screws.

thanks Trail0r

i am pretty sure the hi beam are the same as low beam. I saw on Ebay there is a set of 4 bulbs (hi and low beam) on sale for $9. Is that too cheap to be good quality? They look exactly like the $49.99 ones I just ordered.

Also, I am not exactly sure what you mean by accessing through grill with torx screws. are you able to unscrew the black fog grill from outside and then put on the bulbs? Please give me more details. Thank you for your help in advance.

in that case, i will stop right here. I probably won't ever use high beam or fog lights anyway. Just put the low beam bulbs on. they look nice! thanks Bimmerxenon dude!!!
