They would do it if they were actually offered in the US.

They aren't offered because the trim illuminates blue, and in the US that's considered impersonating a police officer.

Lol. Not at all true. Blue lights yes. Blue paint no.

M8 and X5 have laser lights in US. As stated a hundred times it's the design of the 5 series light that doesn't pass laws passed eons ago about low beams and high beams, etc.

The upper part is blue translucent plastic that becomes a blue light when the DRL illuminates.

Glad to hear that it worked out for you!
Question: Where did you sell the LED lights? eBay or did BMW buy them from you?
Here in Germany I would have to pay ~4.000 EUR per headlight with laser light - and I can already find headlights with LED for 350 EUR on eBay. I guess I would have to come to your dealership in Croatia to only pay 1.000 EUR for the whole project
Thanks!
