BMW Vehicle Bulb Guide

Fitment Data Awaiting Verification

The tables below have not yet been verified against BMW documentation for each market, chassis, model year, body style, and trim. Treat them as reference only, not a confirmed shopping list. Do not select a replacement bulb from the model and year alone.

Before purchasing, confirm the market or regional specification, chassis/model code, exact model year, body style, trim, and factory halogen, HID, LED, or Adaptive LED lighting configuration. Check the existing bulb markings and the owner’s manual for your exact vehicle. Measure the existing festoon bulb where no length is listed. Resolve overlapping year ranges using your exact vehicle configuration; open-ended “Present” ranges do not establish verified coverage of later model years.

Lighting packages require separate verification: Tables such as F30, F10, X5 F15, and X6 F16 list H7 for both beams without identifying the applicable factory headlamp package. These entries remain unverified and must not be assumed to cover every lighting option. The grouped E90/E91 heading does not establish shared fitment across both chassis and all body or lighting configurations.

Entries marked “trim dependent,” including H8 / LED fog-light entries, do not identify which configuration applies. Factory LED entries do not establish an individually replaceable bulb; confirm the replacement method. LED or Adaptive LED headlights do not establish that other light locations use LEDs. Send Riglow the vehicle details and clear photos of the bulb, markings, and connector if you need help.

Find the Correct Bulbs for Your BMW

Use this guide as an unverified reference for headlight, fog light, parking light, brake light, reverse light, indicator, and interior bulb listings. Confirm the factory lighting at each location before ordering rather than assuming fitment from a model name, chassis code, or year.

Popular BMW LED Upgrades

Upgrade your BMW with premium LED lighting for improved visibility, modern styling, and longer lifespan.

Browse Options for Your Confirmed Bulb Type

These links match socket or length labels in our product listings, not verified BMW vehicle fitment. Confirm the original bulb type and each lamp location before choosing. Check connectors, retainers, housing clearance, electrical requirements and suitability for the intended lighting function. CANBUS labels do not guarantee error-free or flicker-free operation.

The linked Premium Red 1157/BAY15d brake/tail candidate has Riglow-confirmed 5W tail and 15W brake modes; these are the LED's stated ratings, not a claim that it is a 21W/5W filament bulb. Dual-intensity confirmation does not establish vehicle fitment, error-free operation or compatibility of the separate 7443 variant. Confirm the socket, contacts, locating pins, electrical requirements and intended lamp function before ordering. The WY21W/7440 amber link uses Riglow’s confirmed cross-reference, not verified vehicle fitment. The BAU15s/PY21W and T20/7440 amber links are separate socket options, not interchangeable recommendations. H8/H9/H11 is a conditional LED family in Riglow’s updated reference chart dated 14 October 2026: a shared connector alone does not confirm fitment, and the exact LED maker must explicitly list the original size. The chart is an identification reference, not a vehicle-fitment or stock list; it does not establish halogen interchangeability. For festoon entries with no length, measure the original bulb before selecting a size. Factory LED entries do not establish a replaceable bulb or compatibility with the linked conversion kits.

Recommended LED Conversions

Verification required: The conversion suggestions below are not confirmed fitment recommendations. Confirm the original bulb type, connector, available clearance, and your vehicle’s lighting configuration before selecting an upgrade. The CANBUS labels in this table do not establish compatibility with every listed vehicle.

Electrical compatibility requires verification: Do not treat a CANBUS-compatible label as a guarantee of error-free or flicker-free operation. Confirm compatibility of the selected bulb with your exact vehicle and light location before ordering.

Important Note

Bulb fitment may vary based on vehicle year, trim package, factory options, and regional specifications. Verify each light location separately; do not assume a vehicle is fully LED from its model year or headlight equipment. If you are unsure which bulb fits your BMW, contact Riglow Auto LED Lighting with:

• Exact vehicle model and chassis code (e.g. F30, G20)
• Exact model year and body style
• Trim level and market or regional specification
• Factory halogen, HID, LED, or Adaptive LED lighting configuration
• Clear photos of the existing bulb, markings, and connector

Our team will help you find the correct LED upgrade.
