I read this on the Roadfly Forum just now from another post. I'm not sure if the dealer is going to remove them or what. We'll see. The guy is in New York.

FYI though.

------------


"My 530 just arrived last night at my dealership. I was able to see the car through a fence - obviously fresh off the carrier/not prepped for delivery yet. Can't wait to pick-up later today!

Having been one of the fortunate few to score a pair of reflectors from Mark (LOMAG), I thought it was important to note that the car came equipped with the red reflectors from the factory!

Has anyone else with recent deliveries seen this?

Order date was 1/28, built on 2/8."

And another post I read today....


"My dealer offered to order the reflectors for me as part of my deal. Today he told me that the US cars come with them now. So now there will be a US part number to order them under."

Guess we'll see...

I just took delivery of my 545 yesterday.

The Black were inserts on the back.

I replaced them with one's I just got from Bekkers Imports.

From a new post on the Roadfly forum...

"Took delivery of my 530i on Saturday 2/28 - built 2/8. The car was delivered into Westchester, NY - NAV/Logic 7/Auto/Shades/Prem/Xenon/Cold.

The car came WITH the red reflectors - no black plugs.

Voice command works perfectly - phone to come soon as eject box for CPT9000 has been redesigned slightly and is due in next week.
I-drive took 20 minutes to master - NAV is absolutely great!

All going very well so far - no issues whatsoever (except piece of front air dam missing - dealer pulled piece from other instock 530). "

The post is about them coming to the U.S. as standard. In other words, no charge. It has nothing to do with the cost of ordering them.
