Yellow DRL for Pre-LCI G30

I just stumbled across this website offering yellow DRLs for sale for many different BMW models, including pre-LCI G30. Has anybody had a chance to try this? I'd love to see some photos.

Thanks for the pics! My 5er is black so it's a great rendition of what it would actually look like.

Nice job on the DRL’s. My inside, drivers side DRL burned out and the dealer wants 6K for a new headlight setup, or to search for the problem itself they said it’s 5 hours of diagnostic time! For a burned out DRL!!

That’s baloney, so I was wondering if you know where I can buy a replacement sensor or whatever it is for the one DRL light that’s out? I’m fine with just regular white color. Thank you in advance!

Nah, it's an issue with the bad LED burning the DRL tube. The process of replacing the DRL module just needs an extra step of you grinding the burnt end of the DRL tube and you'll be fixed

Here's a video detailing exactly your issue and it's fix. No additional cost over the replacement of the cheap DRL module
