1M headlights

Is there any reason why the dealer would refuse to swap 1M OEM headlight assembly for pre-LCI headlights? (At cost of new headlight assembly, of course).

If they didn't change to much on the electrics and mounting point I guess it wouldn't be a Problem. My Dealer told me, they would do it... but he says that BMW headquarter would not sell them parts without Chassis number just because they want to sell the new car of course.

Doubt that'll be an issue with the headlights since they'll be on all 1 series models in the U.S. next spring. But your statement may apply to 1M-specific parts (e.g., alcantara interior bits, gauges, body parts).
