Evening all!

So my F11 has decided it would like to collect water in its driver s side headlight and then have some condensation fun! It s developed several faults. The lights seem to work as you can see in the images below. I have had the battery drain because of it so needed a new battery too! Nightmare!

My car is currently in my local garage with the headlight off. It has been sent off once to be refurbished by keep your car safe .
But apparently they can t fix it as they ve not got the parts.
I ve contacted another place - Headlite. Hoping they can refurb it!

Now, failing refurb, what are my options? I ve browsed eBay for units and there s so many but all come from Asia. Now I m being picky to and want to ensure that my replacement matches the passenger side with BMW Adaptive LED on the bottom of the light.

Me and my wallet are currently crying in the corner.

There’s alternatives to KYCS. How about Home of Headlights?

Water ingress may have damaged the led modules & control box, but as far as I’m aware all these can be swapped out.

New headlights are ridiculously expensive!

Thanks for your reply. I’ll check them out too!

I’m in touch with a guy at Headlite at the moment. He seems to think it’s a very rare headlight. He’s not seen much of them!
