2006 E63 LED Headlight Conversion?

Has anyone converted the headlights on an E63 to LED from Xenon?

Is it just a bulb replacement?

Thanks-

Not going to get much traction in this forum since it’s for the fxx generation 6 series.

This kind of conversion is not recommended and is even potentially hazardous. It will involve wiring modification. The light distribution from LED bulbs will not match that if the Xenon bulb resulting in reduced visibility. Check out this video for example:

In short: don’t do it.
