Philips SilverVision PY21W

Replaced the orange flashing light with Philips SilverVision PY21W 21W today. No more orange color in the headlight front!

Yes, just turn the wheel a bit and remove the cover and you can get the lights out easy!

This was the first mod I installed, really cleans up the front of the car.

Great mod. Combined with coding the ambers off with running/parking lights makes the car look way cleaner!

Anyone find an LED solution that does the same?

The site in the link has a 20% discount dropping them to $10 per bulb.

Thumbs up

Well thanks, guys.

I’d never noticed the amber until I ran across this thread. Now I get to notice it every time I see the front of the f-in car. It’s like having a song stuck in my head.


.........just ordered from the link posted above. Less than $20 and free shipping.

Now if someone starts making clear reflectors, I’ll be set.

Mine arrived today. It took maybe 5 minutes to put them in. It's a nice, subtle clean up of the light cluster. When lit up, they look just like the original lamps.

The bulbs in the link above come from the UK. I didn't realize that. They used enough bubble wrap for a bowling ball.

Thanks for the idea for a nice, cheap upgrade.

If you used them on your '17 M2 and it has standard headlights, then it will work with your M2C as long as it also has standard headlights.

I believe the ugly orange bulb was removed from the adaptive headlights, so no need for this bulb in them.

What is this running amber's nonsense? And the amber front side reflectors on US cars.

Totally wrecks all cars aesthetics.
