Halogen-equipped BMW 5 Series sedans and 5 Series Gran Turismo models from 2010–2013 use this Original BMW headlight driver module, part 63-11-7-304-906, to run their halogen headlights. BMW calls it the headlight ballast module, halogen light. The module weighs 90 g (0.2 lb), is made in Germany, and is sold as a single unit. BMW began producing this number in November 2010. A headlight control module manages the headlight circuit and communicates with the car's switches and other control units.

Original BMW Parts carry a 24-month parts warranty.

BMW's name for this part specifies halogen light, so confirm that your car has halogen headlights, not xenon, before ordering. This number replaced the earlier 63-11-7-267-045. BMW marks it exchangeable retrospectively, which means it can be installed in cars that left the factory with the older module. BMW's parts data shows it across the F07 Gran Turismo, F10 sedan, F11, and F18. Engines range from the N20 and N52N through the N55, N63, and N63N. The ActiveHybrid 5 appears with the N55.
