AKKON - For 06-08 BMW E90 3-Series 4 Doors Sedan Black Bezel Halogen Type [LED Halo] Ring Eye Lid Projector Headlights

These headlight assemblies are fantastic for the price. Compared with a set of OEM headlight assemblies there is no noticeable difference in quality, while aesthetically the AKKON headlight assembly looks light years better than the OEM design even when they were new. As sun crazed as they are no there is no comparison. Some reviewers stated that these aren’t wired the same as the factory assemblies or are a different design than the factory and won’t work. This is patently false, they work perfectly and plug right in to the wiring harness. The only part of these they are NOT plug and play are the LED halo daytime running lights (DRLs). As the car didn’t probably have DRLs originally, of course they don’t plug in to a harness with no allowance for them. But they are easily spliced in at an expense of less than $10 at Autozone. The only detail not mentioned in the Amazon item listing is that the AKKON headlight assembly does not use all of the same bulbs as the factory assembly. If you intend to upgrade to LED bulbs at the same time you install the assembly you will need to know which bulbs the AKKON assembly requires. The AKKON assembly uses the same H7 low beam bulb as the stock headlight assembly uses, but it does not use a second H7 bulb for the high beam as Amazon states the factory assembly uses. The AKKON headlight assembly uses an H-1 for the high beam. And finally the turn signal /side marker bulb in the AKKON headlight assembly does not use the 194 bulb that the factory assembly uses. The AKKON headlight assembly uses the P21W amber light for the side marker/front turn signal as the stock assembly does. The bulbs required are: Low beam: H7 High Beam: H1 Turn signal / side marker: P21w Amber.

I think they look awesome. But the first set were installed about a month and the driver side halo went out. So I thought it was probably a fluke and bout bought a 2nd set. I replaced the driver headlight and within a month the driver halo went out again. This isn't even my daily driver. The lights had barley been used within that month. I think they look awesome but taking the front clip off to replace the assembly is a pain. I recommend buying a different brand.

Honestly for $185 i wasn't expecting much, but my RH headlight was damaged, so i figured I'd give these a try. They're nice! Cons; 1. Did not include low-beam bulbs. 2. No instructions. This was only an issue figuring out wiring the halos. No big deal. There are 3 sets of pos/neg wires coming out the back(not going to the main connector). Two sets have a pink pos(+) wire, these are the halos. There's also a set with an orange pos wire. I still have no idea what those are for. I powered em up prior to installing, nothing. So i just tied em, taped em, and tucked them outta the way. I spliced the pinks/blacks into the white/black wires for the eyebrow lights. When my running lights are on, the halos are lit. Later i might wire them off a relay from the alt, so they're on whenever the engine is on. Pros; 1. Mounting points match perfectly to original. 2. The main connector is on a pigtail instead of being part of the housing. This is nice because it gives you room to work, and means however you choose to wire the halos, you don't have to splice into your factory harness. Big plus there. 3. The halos, while not as bright as factory option angel eyes, are bright enough to be visible even in Texas sunlight. Much better than many others I've seen. 4. The projectors are fantastic. Mine were perfectly adjusted right outta the box. The improvement in peripheral lighting is amazing, and the cutoff line at the top of the beam is a crisp, perfectly straight line. I just swapped in my old bulbs for now, can't wait to see how they look with some super-white bulbs. Overall I'm much happier with these lights than i expected to be. Better visibilty at night, and really sharpens the look of my E90 328i.

As with others, I was skeptical at this price, I usually pay double this for replacement headlight assemblies. They install fairly easily, but you do need to remove the bumper. I have had these for about a month, been through the carwash a few times, and experienced pouring rain, no fogging. I also used Meguiar's headlight sealant to help preserve the clarity of the lights (helps prevent yellowing). They can be aimed, there are 2 8mm bolts sticking out the back of each housing, one is for vertical adjustment, and one for horizontal. I am using LED low beams and the pattern and output is very good. This is probably the best value I have found in aftermarket lights, in my 20 years of maintaining/modifying cars. The angel eyes do need to be wired, so I ordered miniature round switches, that I will put in my cigarette lighter cutout, to have manual control, from a stealth location. Overall, I am very happy with these lights, they are not difficult to install, even if you have not done this type of work before. I should have made a YT video for this, there are some out there, but none that I found were complete, but they will get you by if you need help. (Note - they aren't as streaky in person, my phone was stuck between night shot and standard mode)

Received look decent but are cheap since caps are rubber instead of plastic with rubber seal. For price I said not bad , so everything seems connected , doesn’t come with headlight low beam. I installed and notice top strip not working, so I check bulb then check if wire is getting power and nope dead wire I was like wow brand new now I have to take it all off to send it back. Smh If you don’t want the headache don’t buy them

Edit: changed to 5 stars, not because of the headlights themselves, but because of the top notch service and support. I reported the problem, and seller sent a whole new set of headlights, no issues with those. Thanks for the great support! Build quality seems ok. the install process is straightforward. The connector worked perfectly. Problem is with the projector adjustment. the left side to be precise. After we installed the kit, on the first test, the low beam of both sides was low, with the left side being the worst offender. So I went and tried to adjust bot sides. Began with left side. It began to slowly rise (I DO like that the adjustment is precise, not blunt.). It slowly starts to go up... then it stopped. I assumed that was the highest setting, although it seemed odd that it was still lower than the right side. So I decided to match both, and then lowered the right side to match the left's height. Wento toa drive.... and the cutout is about 4 meters in the front of my car, clearly visible on the pavement! I mean, the fog lights aim higher than that! Went back, tried to re adjust it but it refuses to go higher (on the left side). Extremely dissapointed. Kinda hurts to throw $200 to the garbage.

It does the job, bright stylish you can’t go wrong

So I’m not expert in wiring or whatever you want to call it. I want a plug and play. Got these and figured they weren’t just plug and play if you want the halos to work. So after like 7 hours of YouTubing, googling, looking at forums, posting on Facebook pages, I made progress!!! My halo lights work!!!! On the left you see they work , and on the right you see they don’t ( I haven’t wired those, just wanted to see my beginner skills ) . Anyways long story short if you need ANY help. DM me on tik tok or insta @ 8inchPete. I will help you with how I did it and some more options depending on what you’d want to do. I’m a BEGINNER I KNOW NOTHING. Yet I DID it. Lol sorry I’m just happy. So a few things you’ll need though! Old/existing or new bulbs. ( H7 ) they come with the H1. Wire strippers Heat shrink Quick tap in tips ( I didn’t do this method ) Heat gun Electrical tape ( my heat shrink came with some metal inside so I didn’t need tape nor solder ) And that’s all I believe!! Maybe just 30 min each headlight!!! DM and I’ll help!!
