I've noticed that only the inner bulb lights up when breaking, where the LCI uses the two bulbs. Is it safe to bridge the two lights?

The outer bulb is your Brake Force Display which comes on only when you Brake hard. Some people have joined the Green and Grey wire on the output to make both the bulbs come on like on the LCI. Do it if you want.

Member shawnmfarris and I installed the Euro rear light cluster and cable kit from Bruce Miranda. Everything is working so far. There are many good pictures of the LCI rear light on these forums. Here's one taken with my iPhone 3G.

Some pics of my new Euro LCI tails along with bruce's cables, i had a small problem with the first cable so i shipped it back to Bruce and he was very fast to return a new unit for me, thanks Bruce
Is a complete night and day transformation, they look so fresh and new in the design compared to the old ones im very happy i did this mod, also did this type of upgrade on my old E46 M3 convertible. It changes the whole appearence on the car from behind
And like other said, it only took me about 10 mins, one of the easiest DIY's i have done
