Hi all, have lci 550, wondering if anybody has ordered the modules from aliexpress or other sites to change the drl's to yellow or the rgb one with the Bluetooth module. If so how difficult was it and how do you like it?

TIA

Hi,
Did you ever end up doing it? And if so how was it? Did you have to take the front bumper off or were you able to access the module from the wheel panel??

I saw a pre LCI g30 at the bmw ultimate meet yesterday with the icon headlights where the drls were changed to yellow
Looked pretty cool but no idea about how it was done

[M550iWoW]

No I haven't yet. Going to hold off until I can get some more feedback or more options

Yeaa…so I jumped the gun and ordered it….not sure when I’ll get to it, but when I do I will let you know how much I regretted it or how much I love it lol

What year do you have? For LCI's, the modules are in the actual headlight. There's only one place I know of that can change them and you have to send your stock headlights to them to open them up change the module and then they reseal your headlights and send them back to you. You won't have a car for 4 weeks.

Yeah it seems like some have missed that this is being asked for LCI lol Bayoptics charges $1k for this because of needing to open the headlights and $1300 if you want new lenses in the process. Very different from the DRL module on the bottom of pre-LCI. hope none of the LCI guys waste their money thinking those will work for them

Yup I most def wasted my money then. I tried to look up images of the headlights and thought I saw the module box on the outside. I didn’t realize bayoptics were actually opening and resealing the headlights. Couldn’t find more info on line or on forums before purchase and thought it would be a project I could do. Def out of my expertise. Thanks for the info though guys.
