You guys are awesome. Thanks for the business. I only have 2 sets of NA spec left in stock. No more Euro Spec lights for another week or so. So any pending orders will be fulfilled then. I'm going to order a few hundred sets at he beginning of next year and stock them so we never have this issue again. I'm in talks with BMW Europe and hopefully they can give me a better deal and I can pass that along to all of you.
Look at how many boxes I had to open to inspect the lights and repackage in another box (You cannot believe how lousy BMW is protecting their products). The boxes are lined up to the roof. Thanks again. Let's get all the Pre LCI cars set up with these gorgeous lights! Abdul |

And yes because you haven't got them coded yet, they will not light up properly and give an error. That will go away after coding. |

contemplating this mod as well. I have a early 2019 production NA, so hopefully I'll have a 5pin connector and be able to use the euro tails without any errors.

If you have the 5th wire, it won't make a difference. Still need to run an extra wire either to each outer tail light or to bdc module in passenger footwell. But it's not too difficult.

See my reply to Euro above. If your car has an early 2018 build date there is a good chance you will have the fog wire.

Lol please for the love of god stop replying to the super long DIY post. Especially if all you're saying is thank you.
On a side note. I've noticed with some really cold temps this weekend I got a "turn signal out" message that went away after a restart. Not sure why that would have happened

Hey community I'm having an issue with my retrofit and maybe someone else has had this.
I purchased the LCI lights from Abdul (after lengthy delays)for my 18 Base M5. My car had the whole 5th wire on the inners and I repinned as per this thread. I had Vic code the lights and they worked fine but then every once in a while the left, right and sometimes both outer upper lights would stop working as far as the brake and signal function. The parking light function as does the lower strips but signal and braking intermittent. (only affecting the large led portion not the thin strips at the bottom) When I scan I'm getting fault codes for shorts in both left and right outer lights and another for "exceeded allowable short circuit resets" which I believe is the Body control unit. Ive checked the security of both plugs and wires to the outer lights. Has anyone experienced this? Is it possible the lights (NA spec on NA Car) are defective? Should I run feed wires from the BDC/inner tail lights since I didn't Think I needed to? Sorry if this was addressed before |

Let's talk about the fifth wire. Why did you need a 5th wire with US lights? The 5th wire is for Euro lights from the BDC or jump to the outer. US cars mid 2019 and older often have 5 wires but the 5th is for rear fogs and basically doing nothing for the pre LCI tails. So tell me more about the 5th wire. Where is it now on your inner connector and did you do anything with it at the BDC. Have you tried just removing the 5th wire from the inner connector and just use 4 wires per page one of this thread?
