I recently installed these low beam head light bulbs on my 2014 BMW 328xi. While these are great light bulbs for your low beams, they are very difficult to install. They are a bit whiter than my old low beam head lamps, please see my photos above for additional information. *I highly recommended watching a few “how-to” videos online before you even try to install these light bulbs. If you still want to do it yourself after watching the video, then following my advice may help you avoid some of the headaches that I experienced the first time that I tried to install my low beam head lamps. To begin, you will need a good flashlight or shop light and a regular sized flat head screwdriver. 1) First, turn the front wheels of your vehicle all the way to the right to install the left bulb, and to the left to install the right bulb. You need to turn the wheels in order to access the light compartment without removing the wheel which for some insane reason is in the wheel-well of the vehicle. (Thank you BMW for making this process extremely difficult). 2) MAKE SURE TO TURN YOUR VEHICLE OFF BEFORE PROCEEDING TO THE NEXT TASK! Once the wheels are turned you can then access the light bulb compartment in the vehicles wheel-well. 3) To remove the plastic cover of the light compartment loosen the two tabs at the top and carefully pry it off with the screwdriver. Once removed you will see the round cover for the low beam light bulb. 4) Turn this to the left to remove, remembering that this one screws on and off. Do not try to pry the round cover off with the screwdriver or you will break it. Both of these covers should come off rather easily. Once inside the light compartment feel around for the back of the bulb. Once you discover the back of the bulb. 5) To remove the bulb you will need to very carefully stick your flathead screwdriver into the light compartment to move the small clip at the very top of the bulb so that it releases the bulb. (You’ll see this in the video when you watch it). You should hear a slight click sound when the top tab is released. The bulb will still be connected to the cord at this time. 6) Carefully pull the bulb and cord out of the light compartment. 7) Once out slowly wiggle the bulb off the plug being very careful not to damage the plug or cord. This may take a few minutes to do, but it will eventually come off, just make sure not to damage the plug or the cord. After you have removed the old bulb, take the new bulb out of the package being very careful not to touch the glass part of the new bulb. 8) When you have the new bulb out, slowly install the bulb onto the plug making sure that the small tab on the back of the bulb is facing up, and the circular part of the back of the bulb is facing down. (*SEE PHOTOS) 9) Once the bulb is on the plug, you can start to install the light bulb into place. 10) While working the bulb with one hand, you can watch from the front side of the vehicle to see that the tip of the new bulb is going into the correct hole. Watching from the front of the light compartment will help you to correctly guide the bulb into place. If installed correctly, (small tab UP), you will feel the bulb click into place. 11) Once installed, test the bulb to make sure that it correctly works. After your test, if the bulb correctly works you can 12) replace the round cover on the light compartment, (remember that this cover screws on) 13) then reinstall the square cover of the light compartment that is in the wheel-well. Make sure that this clicks back into place to ensure that debris does not get into the light compartment. You are now ready to do the other side of the vehicle because we always install new bulbs in pairs. Lastly, I highly encourage anyone that is going to attempt to do this to watch any of the great “how-to” videos online that will very clearly show you how to install the low beam light bulbs in your BMW. Good luck with your adventure, I hope that this review will offer some assistance to you with the difficult task of changing your low beam head lamps in your BMW 3-Series vehicle.

Great deal for the price! Better than my previous Autozone buy. Perfect fit and better performance too.

Oh, how delighted I was when I first switched on the HELLA H7 100WTB High Wattage Bulbs! The darkness outside, which had earlier crept around the car like a mischievous little troll, suddenly leapt back in surprise. These bulbs shine not merely with light, but with the bold, bright spirit of a Pippi-like adventurer—fearless, cheerful, and absolutely unwilling to let a gloomy road have the last word. Driving with them feels like setting off through a winter forest in one of my stories, where magic flickers behind every tree and safety accompanies you like a loyal friend. The beams stretch far and wide, crisp and strong, as if they are calling out, “Come along now! There is so much to see!” And my, how much more confident the world becomes when the path ahead glows warmly instead of sulking in shadows. The installation was quick—simple enough that even Tommy and Annika could manage it with a bit of determination. These HELLA bulbs are bright, brave, and full of charm. They make the night feel like an adventure rather than a worry, and for that, I love them dearly.

These bulbs are great, but they do not last long. I’m on my third set and with the auto turn on function of your head lights on modern cars today, they last for a little under a year before they burn out. For 2x the price, I can get the Phillips bulbs from Walmart that last for 5 years. The color just is not as good as these lights, and the amount of light these throw down the road is much better! Only giving them 4 stars because they do not last as long as they should.

Bright as the original!

Needed new headlight bulbs for my daughter’s Subaru and found these. As a mechanic with a very long history of working on European cars, the Hella name is quality. These H7 bulbs fit perfectly and bring back good lighting. The Subaru is not the easiest to install as some of the work has to be done almost blindly. The light emitted looks good. I cannot yet speak of the lifespan, but my experience with the Subaru is if these last at least 2 years (lights always on), than I am happy. These also are at a seriously good price.

Well these lights were nice however by me and my own negligence I ended up frying my headlight retainer. Took me a little bit to realize why. But when I read the bottom of the plastic retainer it said 50 watt Max and these lights were 100 Watts so it was just too much power for those retainers to hold. No damage to the headlight replace retainers lights worked as usual. But I like to clarity a few flights and they seem like they were going to last a long time but then I never got full use out of them due to the fact I didn't realize the specifications for the car

Definitely not yellow just looks like a normal halogen bulb, on the right side of the headlight I put the xtreme yellow bulb and the left is the old one, it also looks like I got a used one unless they actually come like that. Not bad for the price tho just not meant for me .

Buen producto, no son malos.

La luz es muy blanca, pero depende también de las lupas que trae la marca del vehículo puede varias la calidad..

Good brightness and very good quality

👍🏻

Good for Hyundai tucson
