Shadowline package without shadow lights

I'm wondering if it's possible to order the Shadowline package, but have the factory not install the shadowline lights.

In past experience, do you think that is something a dealer can arrange & ensure, or is it too difficult of an ask?

I could be wrong, but I think the shadowline lights are a separate option in the U.K. The configurator shows them as a standalone option.

Hopefully this means they can be separated in other countries too?

No, just a Shadowline package with everything included. I’m wondering if adding a black grille, brake vent cover and having them do body-colored mirrors is an easier and cheaper route compared to doing the package and swapping the lights.

I’m sure that would be cheaper. I’ve heard the lights are crazy expensive.

Worth asking your dealer if they can do the shadowline without the lights first though? What I meant by my first post was that as we can do it in the uk, it at least shows it’s technically possible for them to do it.

Agreed, thanks.

I would order the vehicle with the lights you want and swap the trim. Grill surrounds are cheap in relation to LED Adaptive BMW lights.
