LED side repeaters?

[*AL*]

Does anyone know if the later 2013 side repeaters fit the earlier cars?

Yes facelift ones.

I did fit them on my 2009 e89, paid £90 for both and they look amazing

Thanks, so a direct replacement?

Yes direct replacement but you may have to remove the plastic tab at the end of the repeater as there's no hole for it on the early cars. Breaks off easily then the repeater sticks on car with double sided tape.

I did this retrofit, it takes all of 5-10 mins per side. The tab has a breakoff notch already pre-designed so taking it off is very easy.

Sharp-eyed viewers will also see I've swapped out the stock front bumper for the M-sport version.

Excellent gents! Might have to get some but do they illuminate well as there isn't a lot of lens showing?

Is the electrical coupler the same fit as long as I get OEM parts?

 

[The_Dude]

Yep, exactly the same. Easy job to do and illuminate very well indeed.

I have some for sale on ebay, they've been primed ready to be painted body colour. Never got round to finishing them and fitting them on our old 35i.

Had mine arrive from Latvia via Germany today, genuine items, all the labels had the BMW logos removed or inked out.
I paid £93.00 delivered although it did take 3 weeks.
10 mins per side to fit and clean all the gunge from behind the old ones, electrical plugs are the same, totally plug and play.

I bought some last week and believe they were 95 quid for the pair from my stealers , took five mins to fit, very easy .

I bought gloss black ones from Germany. Look very nice. Easy to fit as well.

Snap, bought mine from the same place and are now fitted. They look so much better than the original pre-LCI.

 

[kinger]

Nice...i like them

 

[alex]

Looks good

I've got some ordered from my local dealer as well, should arrive later this week.

How did you all get to the backside of the fender panel to get the OEMs unclipped from their slots? Did you remove or loosen the plastic wheel well panels, or simply pry off the OEM light with a flat head screwdriver? Maybe there is some access port that I haven't found???

open the bonnet and just inside the top of the wing, you can get a screwdriver to the tab at the front of the indicator, push on the tab with the screwdriver and the indicator will pop out.
