Need help before going for LCI Blacklines

Hi guys,

Really like the LED LCI blacklines for the coupe.

I have a 2011 July car, which come with the LCI rear lights but they don't have the LED lines that light up. Instead, they have the lines but are just cosmetic.

I have tried to understand all the threads on updating to the LED LCI lights but its all rather confusing!

Can anyone just confirm for me that if I order blackline LCi LED tails, that they will be plug and play for my car?

My car:

UK, 120D coupe LCI
Halogen front lights, halogen tails

thanks in advance!

Al.

Think it's only plug&play if you have HID/xenon headlights.

Hi mate, I had this same problem and asked same question on here a while ago but didn't get any answer. my 2011 UK with the same lights.
I contacted danny at bmw parts online and he ordered me some lights, i still haven't received them so can't let u know if they are the correct ones but I sent him a pic of what i wanted.

It has been reported it is plug and play even for non Xeon cars - in that the new LCI led tails will work even on a halogen equipped car.


See post #366 and #367...

Btw... the LCI light you have that do not have the LED tubes light up is reffered to as "basic" or "low" blacklines. And the new-er LCI design with the LED tubes that light up with the parking lights is reffered too as "High" or "High Blacklines".
