Question Euro headlight switch

I know they work on the PRE-LCI e90 (06 325i)

http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/Euro...tch/ES1866753/

What I am wondering is will it activate the rear foglight in the OEM blacklines taillights instead of the stock version? I want to double check if they work on the adaptive xenons.

Thanks

I have blacklines and the rear fogs work for me. I modded my own switch.

Yes it works with the OEM Blacklines.

Good luck. ECS Tuning is a great place to shop.

Yes I have adaptive xenons.

Just remember when running with the rear fogs on your adaptive brake lights will automatically be disabled. Once the fogs are turned off the adaptive brake lights will function as normal.

Interesting, thanks for the info.. any stories on how effective it may be to scare the tailgaters coming too close to your rear?

I just got mine on Thursday. My plans were to use it to warn people to stop riding my bumper in the evening. Have tried to see if it will work that way but I imagine it will.

I bought an LCI euro switch from a member here. You can find for between $50-$100. More than I wanted to spend, but I wanted the LCI look. Installed in 10 minutes, and works great. Many people do the lego mod since US cars only need a small plastic piece to make the rear fogs functional. Seems to work great for most, but you won't get the lighted button with fog symbol on it.
