In the US it will look exactly like OEM LCI in the EU its slighly different because of where BMW positioned the BFD on the pre-LCI cars in Europe. So in normal braking you will get one Brake light but on heavy braking you will get both. I've moved the Brake light in the EU to the middle to make it look more OEM. Its the closest you'll get on a pre-LCI car without a new LCM and programming.

That's good enough. Hope they'll arrive in less than 2 weeks time, so i can put them on before I drive down to Monte Carlo.

Just checked on the last LCI Tail-lights retrofit - V6 GROUP BUY, it took over a month to receive the lights. Hope our light will arrive sooner. I think i'll just sit back and be patience.

They still haven't arrived to Germany according to Heiko and since he messed up, he hasnt made any attempt to contact myself or the shipper to find out where and when the lights and cables will arrive.........sucks 
BTW: Big thanks to Bruce! Awesome guy to deal with and very professional.
Cant say much for Heiko though.............................

I'd be in for the cables only once I get a price quote from another vendor on the headlight housing.

This GB will keep going until the end of July and then we will take stock of how many people are still in and I'll send people the totals. If anyone wants it quicker then you can contact me and pay the full price now and then I'll give you a discount once the GB ends depending on the number of people who have joined.

It gets from Germany to UK very fast but I doubt Heiko will ship any of the lights until he gets the 5 people. Thats the only way we got the discounted price.
Those who sign up for the lights, please make the payment, so we can get them sooner.
