Bi-xenon low beam dead

Hi All,

I noticed a few weeks ago the driver low beam was turning pink, it died yesterday.

I searched on the forum and couldn't find much info., so have a few question. Are most people using stock mini bulbs or aftermarket. If aftermarket what kind? Also where are you guys buying them?

Thanks!

ECS sells both the OE bulb (about $160 each) and several aftermarket (at about half that.)

The D1S bulbs here: Aftermarket and Factory, recommended replace in pairs so they color match. The Ziza ones you don't use the little extra plugs for MINIs.
