E90 Pre-LCI F10 Style tail lights, yes or no?

I found a thread in M forums
http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthr...=871100&page=2


They are the F10 style E90 Pre-LCI LED tail lights. Has anyone here tried them? Experience error codes, burnouts or problems at all? Im very interested in replacing my blacklines for F10 style E90 Pre-LCI LED Tail Lights.

I have em. No issues. But I also have their headlights and I have intermittent error codes, so their manufacturing quality is dubious.

I really can't understand why.

These tail lights have great light bars for the brake lights.
However for reverse / turn they used lamp.

On the other hand, Spyder Auto make an F10 Style tail light.
The brake light is just multi led dot bulbs and the led tube is just fake.
However the reverse / turn is multi LED.


Why did neither of these companies do both?
Working LED tube with brake + multi led turn / reverse.............

Why not code out the errors.

This car is much more enjoyable when these lights are coded out. I was able to replace all my exterior lights to ones that I wanted and never looked back.

If you're referring to me in that post, it's because the error is due to the lights actually not working. So coding out the error doesn't really solve the problem.

In my opinion, the third light bar looks really goofy. If you want a cheaper, good looking solution I'd go with MARS tail lights. They look extremely close to OEM.

I was wondering why also... Those 2 together would be the greatest combo ever.

I went with these after looking for the same thing you want. I don't know why no one will do full LED but at least these have bright LED's where it counts blinker and brake. Euro LED

Are the brake lights the LED tubes glowing brighter?

Or are they dot leds in between the tubes?

Was this plug and play? How'd you replace the stock tail lights?

I have them. They're ok. Doesn't seem very bright in the day time. Looks decent on my black e90
