Interior LED alternatives to the Ziza kit?

Hey everyone,

I know ECS sells the ziza kits for the minis, but they seem a bit out of my price range for the complete kit.

Have been reading about the ebay options, and how some people have problems with codes, or burn outs, or just general cheap lights.

Does anyone have a good (read:cheaper) alternative to the Ziza kits? I'd like to overhaul all my lights, but the $100+ price range seems a lil high for 10ish led bulbs..

For all interior except glove box:http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00MGI60RQ

And these for the glove box:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00KOGJ28Q

I used these on R61 and R57. The festoons did not fit correct in the R57 for license plate lights. The do fit for the glove box festoon swap perfectly though.

After messing with the R57 license plate lights I have decided the design of using festoons crammed into the fixture was a horrible design idea by MINI. I am sticking with standard bulbs for the R57 license plates.

For fogs: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B007PS4VBO

For city light (above fogs): http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00H294NPA

All these lights will give no errors.

wow, thanks for all the links!

Glad to see that there is a cheaper alternative out there!

Do you know if the lights you posted that work for the R61 and R57 will also work with the R60?

R60 and 61 will be the exact same. If you have a 2015 then you don't need the city lights or the fogs.

+1 on ECS's Ziza interior LED bulbs. They look great no warnings. Nice lighting. Easy install. Had them about 4 months. No issues.

I don't think any interior bulb will give warning. Only exterior will give warning.

Correct, verified on this end.

Thanks Drivehard,

Yea, not bulb out errors to worry about on the interior , but on the exterior, where they can trigger, all our Ziza LED kits are "bulb out" error free. So no worries. Like the Ziza plate light leds linked above from the Countryman.
