To achieve the LCI effect - not talking about brighter lights - the slow dimming effect when you switch off the lights, you will need to replace the LCM on your car. I did that and had it recoded with the LCI settings, with the new tailights and an OEM e46 cable (same one being used) without the additions. Bruce helped me on my cable which was a unique one.

I have my stock pre-lci headlights and the LCI tail lights both work as an LCI giving me the dimming effect. I also managed to eliminate the strobing that occurs at start.

Hi all,

I know there have been quite a few posts along these lines before, but there is just too much info for me to take in by trawling through all of the previous posts talking about the different versions and upgraded versions of the various angel eye upgrades available, and many posts are fairly old and probably out of date now anyway.

So - I have my new LCI E60 on order, due for delivery in about 6 weeks time. I want to order some replacement angel eyes and have these ready to fit on delivery so want to order them fairly soon. Could anybody please let me know which are the best replacements available out of those on the market (either from people on these boards or elsewhere), and the costs/website link/discount codes etc?

I know it may be subjective but I just want to make sure I order something that is going to serve me well, which is easy to fit and won't give any i-drive errors or other car problems (I have read about radio interference as one example).

I don't mind receiving PM's, but would prefer to have replies in this thread for other users to see.

Thanks!
