Low beam headlights that fit BMW X3
The base in the low beam differs between model years. Select the model year above to see exactly the right bulb for your car.
Halogen or xenon? Here's how to tell the difference
Xenon: white to blue-white light that comes on with a short flash and becomes fully bright after a few seconds. The car almost always has headlight washers and automatic level control. The socket starts with D, for example D1S or D3S.
Bi-xenon: xenon which also provides the high beam. The same bulb is used for low and high beam.
Halogen: Yellower light that lights up immediately without delay. The socket starts with H, for example H7 or H4.
Factory LED: bright white light in strips or small modules. Often there is no lamp to replace.
Still unsure? Look at the lamp you have today, in the instruction manual, or contact us with your registration number and we will help you.
If you choose Luxtar HERO, adjust the headlights down slightly after installation so that you do not dazzle oncoming traffic.

Both are available. Xenon gives a white to blue-white light that becomes fully bright after a few seconds, and the car usually has headlight washers. Halogen gives a yellower light that turns on immediately.
