Headlight technology at a glance. Take a look at the differences between technologies with this simple reference guide: Halogen. Xenon HID. LED. Laser. Estimated colour temperature. 3200K - 5000K. 4000K - 6000K.
There is no difference between adaptive and non-adaptive though as they use the same elements. Sorry but no. Low Beam: F30/31 LCI Standard LED: 784 lm. F30/31 LCI Adaptive LED: 1097 lm. F32 Xenon: 1170 lm. F32 Adaptive LED: 903 lm. High Beam: F30/31 LCI Standard LED: 1226 lm.
Uh, yes and the ballasts, additional wiring, the projector, and the bulbs. Not to mention that the xenon system if it is done aftermarket could cause a total system failure. This means NO headlights, and you may have little to no warning.. By the time you finish paying for everything you'll wish you had the xenon's on the car when purchased.
Instruction how to install lci headlights into your pre lci bmw e60:
Projector headlights are significantly brighter than reflector headlights. They're less likely to blind other drivers. Because projector headlights are directed downwards towards the road, they don't shine in other drivers' eyes. Projector headlights give off a more even light. Reflector headlights can have darker spots.
shame, the new leds need to include some yellows that xenon have. I believe oem was 4100k and most leds are 6000k but leds are more singular in spectrum vs xenon which made a range. You can tell driving at night in the rain where the xenon have more range while the leds higher blue gets absorbed by the slick roads.
