How much for a LCM

[MistaSmiff]

How much would you pay for a LCM ( Light Control Module) that can run the new LED's?...second hand of course.

Also are there diffrent typres of LCM's?, the one I have has no headilight up and down movement so i'm guessing it's from an E46 that had Xenons.. [hmm

When I checked with local $tealer 6 mths ago was told approx £250-£300 depending ?
I assume that you checked that your car needs a LCM & that it's pre Aug 2001 by Vin Number?

But I have been offered one that has no headlight tilt is that normal?

Sorry mate, can't help on that one as mine is post 2001 with Xenons.
Perhaps someone else can help?

LCMs are £160-170 new. 2nd hand, if you can find one, does vary greatly in price but I would say at least half the new price. Although you might get lucky if the seller is not aware that people buy newer ones for LED conversion ;)

3 types. Manual dip adjustment for cars WITHOUT xenon, automatic headlamp for 330 and M3 with xenons, and the CSL on-off only switch.

Hmmm..so it might work ...I'll give BMW the part no. they MIGHT be able to tell me if it'll work or not cheers.. [cool

If you get the LCM without dip control, your dipped beam will be fixed at a position. Not a big deal, just adjust it to the angle you want and swap the LCM out.

I can almost guarantee you your dealer will say it can't be done. It's not something they 'approve'.
