LCI?

Can someone just clear up what not having an LCI model actually limits you to? It appears to me that you can still change headlights from halogens to xenons and upgrade to professional nav? Only thing I've found so far you might struggle with is changing shifter to electronic one.
Forgive me for being naive, but is there something else I'm actually missing?

You can change light from a non LCI to LCI spec, but the LCI works with LED technology so you will need to change some wiring to prevent strobing and so on. There are several topics on this on the forum...I think that the navi on LCI spec cars is different (in appearance anyway) to the non LCI cars...Not exactly sure if you could change the navi without adjustments...
I read somewhere that the LCI M-tech bodykit is also a bit different from the non LCI models...And there might be some electronic issues which could be different..
I drive an non LCI car as well, so not to sure about all the LCI features I am missing out on...

Yeah, this is the issue I have as I want certain features, but don't know whether to buy a non-LCI car now and do it myself, or keep saving and get an LCI and possibly still have to retrofit.
