You need the 2 new LCI lights (duhhh), and about 2 - 3m of 0.7mm diameter wire (to draw power from the license plate lights to light each of the the LED strips). You can modify the wire harness connectors to fit in the LCI lights.

I think you can get away with no coding, but if you want to change/fix up how the led strips work with the parking lights/brakes then you'll have to code that...
Haha yep that's the thread I followed
Did you end up getting the contacts for the LED strip from BMW? I picked mine up from the parts dept today and they look smaller than the pins in the wiring harness... hmm... I've also got some similar looking ones from Bunnings which may or may not work.
