you can try to get it from the dealer or the forum, or Garry from Newport BMW. You will also need a cable adapter to have it work with an 05 car.

I love the look of the 08 tails. Definitely get it if u can.

You can also search junkyards. I got my 08 xenon adaptive headlights from a junkyard for just over $400 (and then sold my 06 headlights for a couple hundred bucks).

+1 the LCI tail lights are sweet, especially the Euro spec version, but so far the estimated cost is about $850 to $900 for the lights and cables. $1000 mod to replace tail lights.......now that is BANANAS!!!

I hear Garry can only get the US spec lights though. Anyone else here anything different?
