i read somewhere that the upgrade may not keep all of the functionality of burnt-out lamp warning and such. is that still true?

Where can you buy the euro spec with the amber signal? Does the Bruce cable work for those as well?

scroll up above to my earlier post regarding member ricky1329

and yes, bruce's cables work for both us and euro spec just the same...the only difference between the two is the amber/red blinker...

Thanks. I'll contact them.. Now if I upgrade the tail lights, will that prevent upgrading the front at some point? I read somewhere that if you want to upgrade both, BMW has a module to do both upgrades...it also needs a reprogramming too.

double_s sells Amber Euro spec tails. Shop around for best price.
You only need Bruce's cable if your car is Pre-LCI model. GL.

I'm assuming prices have gone down for this upgrade by now?
I just bought the complete set from Bruce ( cables and lights ) not fitted them yet but hopefully will post some pics when i have - email Bruce and he'll give you the lowdown....
