Default My 530xi is going under the knife & tail light question

In the next week or so, i'm going to trek over to umnitza for installation of the mtech front bumper and skirts. I'm excited to get a better look for the front end of the car.

I'll post some before and after photos in this thread. Been reading some threads on tail light retrofits and this 'ricky light' mod...anybody have a link to the definitive post on the subject? From what i've read so far, it seems the oem lci tails will fit fine, then you need a bruce miranda cable to get the light working properly. Some other trickery needed for the ricky behavior. I stumbled across a newish thread last night that seemed to have a new method...need to read some more, but any advice/pointers in the right direction on this subject would be appreciated.
