I just ordered a set of US lights from MPower. Can't wait to install them. I had a dealer loaner LCI 5 series recently and fell in love with these. Thanks for all the info on here euro* and others. I'll post up some pics and such when I'm finished.

Just curious, why did you go with the US lights and not the Euros where the welcome lights work?

I highly recommend using Vic for coding.

Understood, plus you don't need to run the 5th wire with the NA lights. Can't say I have even looked at the amber blinker on mine, but I do love the look of the new lights when they light up to welcome me. Money well spent. I think I'd choose this upgrade over the Dinan tune I did if I had to choose.

After sitting behind another 5 at a stop light I've come to the conclusion that I have to update my tail lights. What is the consensus on euro amber signals and needing the wire ran for the inner lights on the trunk? Is the below coding previously mentioned only for US lights or is there even a difference coding wise? I'm at the point that I'll even do the remote coding, bonus if I can avoid having to run a wire to the front of the car.
1) Update software to 03-2021 2) Add HELC to HO-WORT 3) Code BDC module 4) Make some changes manually (bimmercode can do this too): BL_L_CCM: ccm_346 [01 5A] BL_L_IS_LED: nicht_aktiv, default [00] BL_L_MIN_PWM: 5% [05] BL_L_WARMUEBERWACHUNG: nicht_aktiv [00] BL_R_CCM: ccm_345 [01 59] BL_R_IS_LED: nicht_aktiv, default [00] BL_R_MIN_PWM: 5% [05] BL_R_WARMUEBERWACHUNG: nicht_aktiv [00]

I think the coding might be slightly different. Something has to tell that 5th wire what to do. The other pin locations are the same for both US and Euro lights. If it is of any help, Vic (the coder) told me to cancel my US light order and order the Euro's. Glad I did. I think the amber blinker is kind of cool too, although I haven't studied it. It only lights up amber, the case is red. I know what you mean about seeing them on the road. It friggin haunted me until I pulled the trigger. The newer lights on all the new bimmers are sexy and the old one's look like big red blobs once you have a liking for the LCI's. I mean, look at this:

Thanks for the referral. You guys are the best. But I have to say, you guys are keeping me more busy than I thought I would be. I had 10 sets in stock a few days ago. I'm down to 2 sets. If you want a set, go ahead and make the order. I'm expecting another batch of 10+ in the next week or so. I have both NA and Euro spec. However, I'm starting to see most people going with Euro Spec nowadays.
Punch in the following code at checkout. BIMMERPOST I'll leave it active for a week. |

Interesting that you have 10+ sets per week. This has been long enough, As per my email to you today, I have been waiting 47 days for even a tracking number for my order. I paid for my items back on 16th August. Order number 11829 Copy of email sent to you just now Hello Abdul, It has now been 47 days from the original order, no tracking number details have been received as per your last email. Can you please provide an update on this ? If no reply I will need to do a chargeback on my credit card as no receipt of tracking details or the item in over a month is not good service Regards, Samuel From: M Power Motorsports <info@mpowermotorsports.org> Sent: Friday, 17 September 2021 2:53 PM To: Samuel Jackson <samuel@thuroonaservices.com.au> Subject: Re: Your M Power Motorsports order has been received!

Samuel, your shipment was shipped directly from Europe long time ago. Didn't you get the tracking number? You don't have the shipment? That's crazy!!! I spoke to you and I though that was over with! FORGIVE ME, my brother. I had no idea until now. Please text me your number and I'll call you. I chose to ship your shipment directly from Europe since that would've been quicker and cheaper for you shipping wise. |

Evening Abdul,
No, I would not be posting if I had received what I had ordered. I am unsure what your shipping process is but it needs to be revised. Can you please supply/post the tracking number which will show the dates posted compared to the order date etc. Its near midnight(11:25pm) here in Perth Australia and on my phone in bed. I do understand that COVID19 is causing some delays but I get near daily deliveries from both the USA and Europe and the delivery time is very quick(in fact, its quicker to ship from the USA/UK than within Australia at the moment!). Regards Samuel |
