Vendor for Amber DRLs

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I have to pull my front bumper off to replace the lower center grille. I was thinking I would swap my DRLs to the amber setup.

Where is the best place to purchase these? I assume they are all from Bayoptiks where they are listed at $300. Is there a better quality or better vendor available for these?

I'd personally save yourself some money and buy directly from the company making them in China

I picked mine up from Bayoptiks and they seem to be good quality.

They probably are sourced from the same manufacturer, but it may be worth it to get them from a shop that will stand behind them if you have any issues down the road.

It is a 2-3hour install so I wouldn’t want to do it again just for sport…

I usually believe in the buy once cry once philosophy. I’d rather pay a little more and not have problems, or at least have customer service to help if I do.

The option is there if you want to spend the money.

I did bite the bullet this week. They won't be getting installed until end of May though as the car is going in for full ppf and they're taking the bumper off so will get them installed then

I dunno. A thousand bucks for swapping white LED diodes for yellow? I don’t really see that as a viable option 🤣

Oh, don't get me wrong, I'd love to do it. I just personally can't justify the cost is all.
