Default Um-Nitza LCI tail lights - anyone tried these?

Looks like it comes with the cables required to make them fit well with pre-LCI LMs. These are not OEM (website is honest about it), and the pricing of $299 for the pair is awesome. Anyone used them?

there is a member who bought these and started a thread about them...i cant remember who it was but i do remember the consensus was that its better to just spend the money to go full OEM LCI as the rods/bars are not really comparable and dont give you the full look you may want...

NOT WORTHING THE MONEY!
My friend has them on his E60 and you can hardly see the lines clear in the night, also as you can see the fiber\led lines doesn't go until the taillight finishes.
If you really want that look, go for OEM.

I had the exact tails Umnitza sells on my old 530, they look good, obviously not as bright as real LCI - and I got mine for $180.




Shop around, the ones I had were smoked and looked pretty good. They worked perfectly and were plug and play. Heck, if you were in SoCal and had contacted me Friday you could've had mine. Traded my car in so they are gone

Better off spending the $ on LCI imo.
