LCI BLACKLINE pics of wiring?

Can anyone post some pics of the LCI LED Blackline rear lights?

Trying to work out for sure if my non LED LCI rear light wiring will fit the LCI LED rear lights.

My current LCI lights has 2 plugs:

plug with 6 sockets but only 5 wires, goes into the multi bulb board.
plug with 2 wires that currently plug into a single bulb socket.


How many plugs are needed for the LCI LED?

Anyone got pics?

Thanks!

Just installed these last night. I remember only two plugs, one smaller, one larger. It was such a straight-forward and easy install I don't remember much about how the insides look, other than that.

Hope the attached photos help. These were taken on my 2011 135i that originally had the old-style tail lights. Unfortunately my smaller plug has 3 wires. Here are the photos (click for larger):

Large plug:





Small plug (when I unplugged it the LED bars went out):

Thanks for the pic, that explains a lot, as they say pic is worth a thousand words!

here are my current plugs. As you can see, my smaller plug actually plugs into a bulb holder.

looks like in the smaller plug, I have the yellow/grey wire missing. I wonder what this wire does and if it it needs to go into the FRM......
