Help with replacement 2010 HID Fogs, Turn Signal, etc

Hey guys,

I recently got my 2010 G37 xS Sedan and I want to change these foglights desperately. I was wondering what the best kit for the new body style is, since this is the first year they put fogs on the bottom. Anyone have experience with this or picture to show. I have searched the forums and a found a thread or two but not much detail.

I also want to change my front turn signal to LED, license plate, back up lights, and interior lights. I know V-led is a great vendor and I will use the coupon code when purchasing.

Can someone direct me to getting a great HID Kit, I want to make sure I receive the proper equipment (harness, extra wires necessary, etc) before I get them installed by a professional because I have had issues with HID's in the past. For instance, do I just purchase a kit? or do I need other components for this car? I was going to purchase from DDM Tuning, anyone recommend this?

HID Kits, BMW Aftermarket Bumpers & Lighting, DEPO - DDM Tuning

If I purchase these should I just get the 35 W? and I was going to get the most similar color to OEM headlights so I thought of 5000k to get that slight hint of blue. Do I need any other harnesses or anything along with this, I am stressing this because I do not want issues later on.

Thanks,

Joe

I got my HID headlights and fogs from there and they are great. For the sedan, yes get 35W.

5000K will be more pure white, you should get 6000K or even better 8000K if you want some blue in it. But 5000K is good for close to stock.

The kits you get from DDM tuning will come with everything you need

I recently installed the V-LED kit for fogs on my 2008 Coupe and am preparing a DIY.
I used this one which is plug-n-play (with some difficulty); all equipment was included:
V-HIDS PREMIUM DIGITAL XENON HEADLIGHT KIT H1 6000K BLUE TINT
The light works well but was not so easy to install due to the cramped location.

I don't know if the 2010 is the same light configuration, but I think it is not.

I have also changed out every filament bulb on the G (except the glove box).

Thanks for the responses guys, however is the right size for the fogs H8?

I also want to make sure which bulb size I should get for the front signals, back up lights, license plate, and all interior lighting.

Yes, I think the 2010 uses H8 (the 08-09 uses H1)

here is the link for all the other lights
