BMW E60 5 Series '04- '07 L.E.D. Taillight Installing Set , Smoke / Red, Complete with Transformers
http://www.bekkers.com/Merchant2/merchant...._Code=btailse60
Price: $345.45
BMW, Aftermarket LED taillight installing set for the 5-Series BMW '04-'07.
The lenses are smoke / red and fits EURO as well as USA models. Includes
transformers, wiring harness and bulbs. Very Easy DIY installation.
I wonder if this still generates an error message. Any input is welcomed.

I know Ive seen some other members on here (maybe pinguhk?) that have these lights, but just not sure if they are the exact same brand.
If you decide to pull the trigger on these let me know how well you like em. Im trying to decide if my next mod should be replacing the tail lights or upgrading my underseat subs and amp.

Frank, I have these taillights on my car right now. I got mine from ebay. Way cheaper! Anyway, I haven't gotten any error messages due to the taillights. In my opinion, they work well and look great. I just put LED bulbs for my rear turn signals because I wanted red instead of amber.

Btw, which bulb did you end up using? And which vendor did you buy them from on eBay?

You're right Ace! They look just like the ones on eBay -- for about $150 less. I guess I was imagining things last night; they looked like the the real-deal LCI lights. Upon further comparison, I guess I was wrong.

Here's a link where I found the Red LED bulbs. The link shows white LED bulbs, and I'm not sure if they still have the red ones.

I'll try to get some pics later on this evening.
I'm not sure which vendor was used because I got the taillights as a Christmas gift. They're definitely not like the LCI tails, but a great upgrade from the non-LCI tails. IMO.
