I ordered the Bayoptiks set which is most likey the same ones being sold all over ebay. I figure paying slightly more by going with a US vendor gives me some protection from fraud and have warranty if these fail.

Been about a week and nothing has shipped yet even though they told me it was "in stock". Not off to a great start already but I'll keep everyone posted.

I actually hope that it doesn't pulse on and off like the LCI because i find it looking cheap and doesn't look like its LEDs when it does that.

I like the "running" turn signal. I just don't like the pulsing on and off for the rest of the brake light because it looks like you have a weak incandescent bulb in there. BMW really needs to take a good look at Audi when it comes to lighting design.

I messaged few of those sellers and they said not work for US car if the signal color is red. Not sure if they mean regulation or what, language is definitely a barrier.

When they say "signal" they mean a turn signal. In America it is red and is usually combined with a brake light.

This copy of the lights was made for Europe, where the turn signal is a separate light and has an orange (or yellow) color.

But that’s the problem, will the wiring work with NAM?

UCD wrote

In an American car there will not be a turn signal wire (the wire itself may be there, but it is used for the brake light), and it is possible that these lights in turn mode (when the brake light blinks) may not work correctly. More precisely, the seller or manufacturer of these flashlights will tell you.

i guess they told me it doesn’t work already. But if the wiring is there, does it mean that if we connect the pulsing signal for the turn signals to these aftermarket lights turn signal then it will work?

UCD wrote

Yes, everything will work, but:
1) It is necessary to recode BDC to Europe (only rear lights)
2) It is possible to lay (if indeed not) a wire for the turn
3) Is it legal in the USA to drive a car with European turns?

1. I am not sure about that, maybe some coding experts can comment.

They actually will work in the US a Member ordered these from the same link I provided I ordered them as well. He sent me some pictures and videos.

No coding required. He also did confirm that it’s plug-in play. I have a video but I can’t post it if you want you could hit me up on Instagram and I can forward it to you Installsplus flooring.

It seems when unlock, it doesn’t light up the signals.

In the description the video shows the unlock feature. Hoping it does that. I’m pretty sure it does I can ask for a video clip from dubsesd.
