2011 model front/tail light set

Iluvwhite · 11-15-2010, 05:19 PM

as i dropped by the dealer to grab my wheel locks... I ask the guys @ parts deparment about the new front/tail light sets.

the question was "will the new ones fit my car (09 E92)?"
they replied "no, it wont... due to current/power issues blahblahblah"

is that true!? then how come we got members from Van city got it done!?

Fitment wise, they fit on the existing opening, but you will need resistors and/or coding to make the headlight and tail-light to work, since they are now LED.

The front may not work, you will need a new front bumper.

Front has got an all new design and probably need more than just a set of lights/hood/fenders/bumper...

OP i replied to your pm.

Do you know if you can use a code that makes LCI halogens capable of using LCI xenons?

I'm not an expert at this, you could always PM dimsum about it ...

But if I think about it logically...Halogen and LCI xenons obviously use different wiring ..so if you're asking plug'n'play I would say no...

The facelift on the E92 is a weird one...only tails applied to the M..but the non-M's got basically a brand new refresher all around..
