E92 side repeaters
Mine are starting to look mouldy from inside the lense, I think the seal has gone. I would like to replace them with smoked/lightly tinted ones. Anyone have any reccomendations?
I have looked on ebay and found a led version but not sure how good they would be? |

I ended up buying the one in my link, I did see the led ones but they didnt look too oem for me so decided to stick with the normal ones. i did see a pics that Mr singh put up and they did look a bit too dark for me

They looked alright BUT they flickered a lot when not supposed to be on and just felt cheap eventually so put the originals back on. |

The originals in my E91 are stamped Philips at the back and are not really of good quality either. The driver's side repeater was hanging loose one day and close inspection revealed that the plastic holder bit that holds the metal spring had broken and the metal spring was lost in the car innards for ever. I made another metal strip spring (diy) and glued it to the original half broken holder and put it back in place. Let us hope it holds on. Now I am waiting for the other side to hang loose soon due to plastic fatigue. Swedish BMW forum has quite a few of their members with similar problem. Original repeaters are definitely no better than the Taiwan copies!
