You'll just need the cable so that you don't get the error message since the new ones are LED's. The fit is the same though.
Bruce in here made the cable, you can PM him for the prices

Anyone know how much a new set of LCI lights are from the dealer?
I know that the cables can be pricey...

I contacted Garry from BMWofNewport awhile back, for the cost of the US spec LCI tail lights.

So we're looking at like 400 for the lights and another 300-400 for the cable?
Not too bad if you can get the whole thing done for 800ish out the door.
