{"product_id":"bmw-headlight-switch-unit-2","title":"Original BMW Headlight Switch Unit with ALC","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Original BMW light switch unit with ALC, part 61-31-9-133-029, is the headlight switch that operates the lighting functions on BMW vehicles. A headlight switch is the driver's control for the car's lights, so its condition directly affects how well the road ahead is lit. BMW builds this version as one switch unit weighing 242 g (0.5 lb) and sells it individually. The ALC designation is part of BMW's own name for this switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBMW released 61-31-9-133-029 in December 2006 to replace the earlier switch, 61-31-6-965-392, and rates the change as exchangeable retrospectively. This unit therefore takes the place of the older number on cars built with it. Two further numbers, 61-31-6-936-830 and 61-31-6-925-074, also cross-reference to this switch, so a car fitted with any of those three earlier parts is served by the current BMW unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: BMW (Original BMW part)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: 61-31-9-133-029\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW part name: light switch unit, ALC version\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 242 g (0.5 lb)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as: one switch unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduction start: December 2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces: 61-31-6-965-392, exchangeable retrospectively\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso cross-references: 61-31-6-936-830 and 61-31-6-925-074\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePMB does not yet have a confirmed vehicle application on file for this switch, so this page does not name specific models or years.
