I am not 100% on the prices of either but I know Bruce's cables don't come cheap. Shoot him a PM.

You can contact Gary at Newport BMW for the tails. He gives 25% discount to E60.Net forum members.

This is just a ball park figure. Someone was in the last GB and decided to sell them at cost.

There is no way these lights would work on a non-lci vehicle without either Bruces cable system or some BMW convertion pack.

I made my upgrade this past weekend and yes its very sweet.

Its not cheap, thats for sure!

Go with a bodykit first for sure. Then the tailights.
