So if any of you have the euro stickers bought from these boards or know about euro cars then this question is for you.

I thought the stickers we all bought that stick on the corner lense was just a design made by someone to cover the amber bulb and somewhat appear like the new LCI cars without the bulb.

However I saw on youtube a test of the 5 series against an audi and honda I believe or some older test with pre lci european 530 and it had the actual stickers or what apeared to look identical to them, not the lci headlights we hvae in the US.

Is the pre lci euro have the identical sticker thing on them-only i am assuming it is not a sticker? or could it possible that the tester used some guys car from a message board who pasted the sticker on

The purpose of the euro sticker is to look like the euro pre-LCI headlights but not to the LCI ones. Euro pre-LCI lights dont have the yellow reflectors on the sides
