Light Bar bulb replacement?
Has anyone ever had to replace the bulbs for the light bar on the Xenon package tail lights? My passenger side inner light bars are no longer lighting up and it isn't throwing any codes.
I searched the forum, but am wondering if anyone knows what type of bulb the bars take or whether I should just take it into the dealership? Thanks!

Here's a link to the realoem.com page on the rear lighting for an '11 F25 28i. There appear to be two different bulbs, which I wouldn't think would be listed if they weren't replaceable. The light assembly is listed at various prices. The two online BMW parts sites that I checked listed it for under $200, less with discount.

Thanks for the replies.
I did some looking around and it seems that the light bars are lit from a different source than the bulbs listed on realoem...Unfortunately it looks like the whole assembly needs to be replaced of those LEDs go out.
