We won't know until someone tries to "upgrade" their car. It would not surprise me if the car required some coding though. I don't see why it would... but then again the Germans always do these upgrades the hardway!

I know that on the E9X when someone up graded the taillights they needed to be coded in order to not blink/flash when the car was truned on. It has to do with the signal that the computer sends out to check to see if there are any lights out.

Does anyone have the part number to the LCI headlights, or the Euro-spec ones without the amber corners?

Its all plug and play, unless your halogen.

Please let me know where you will source your headlights. They are hard to come by.
