Same thought does the fit work for 2018 & 19 M40i models?

I am working on replacing my taillight on my 2020 G01. I am having problem getting the interior panels off on the truck itself so I can get to it. Anyone have any advice or pictures?

I saw that they have the BMW logo inside. It should be OEM as I don't think anyone already built replica for this kind of new product. But I will ask. My dealer in France doesn't have the parts available so thinking of China. Found another cheaper option:

I placed the order, let's see how good are these parts. I will let you know.
The vendor told me that there is no electrical change to make to the wires, it is plug and play and that these are OEM with BMW logos and certifications.

I'm happy for you guys… trust me when I say these look amazing on the car. Changes the back end completely! Really an excellent upgrade.

Let's hope the work correctly!

Anyone know if the LCI rear bumper/ diffuser is plug n play on the pre-LCI? I prefer the pre-LCI tail lights however I don't think one looks better than the other, it's just a matter of preference. The LCI rear bumper is better tho IMO.

are these '22 OEM tail-lights blacked out/darkened? Might consider in that case.

Yes ! Finally, I got it in 10 days. These are Genuine (Hella Manufacturer).
Packaging was not perfect, I had few plastic clips that were broken (but it isn't a problem to install, they are not needed).

I took it to a local workshop and they did change the cable setting. Now works perfectly and the look is really amazing.

Funny how the LCI rear lights were on a lot of peoples hate list for the LCI when it was first announced and pictures started appearing, now people want to retro fit them

Hey guys…. I have a 2020 X3M competition that I purchased new and bought these taillights. When I went to install them last night, I noticed my stock harness for the outer taillights only has 3 wires and not 4 (missing the blue). Also I tried all wiring combinations and cannot get the lights to work properly. What’s happening is that the turn signals which are amber are coming on as the brake lights. Anyone who has done the retrofit have any ideas?
