Improving lighting on BMW RT1200 LC 2015

Post by jeancap_31 »

Hello,
I'd like to replace the original BMW headlight bulbs by LED or Xenon bulbs.
I have seen information on GS but nothing on RT.
I already have 2 BMW additional LED headlights on the side but I find the original lightin yellowish in comparison.
Thanks
Jean (from France)

Bonjour Jean, can you post a photo of your additional lights. Did you have to add some some bars to mount the lights? Regards

The easy option to improve on the standard lights is just to replace the bulbs with something like Osram Night Breaker Unlimited or [font=]Philips X-Treme Vision both give a stronger whiter light, makes enough of a difference for me!  Peter[/font]

Hello,
On the french internet, I have found the following

You need 2 bulbs:
1 for low beams
1 for full beams
