LCI headlight module is required. In order for them headlights to work on pre LCI car, you must wire them to the rear LCI lights, and have the dealer program the module for you!

Remember that in pre LCI 5 series, the full beams were the inner lights. In LCI cars, the full beam is encorporated into the outer headlights!

ok, but the wierd is that everything works anyway, my friend has a 5 series 2003 e60 and he just changed the headlights and it works without new module
and i also have the lci rearlights they work flawless becuse i have special resistors for them so that why i dont think they need to be connected to the fronts

by the way are you "ahmed" on m5board.com)
