Modded E60 LCI Tail Turn Signal

maitrimk · 04-12-2010, 01:49 PM

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to share with everyone that I was able to change out the LED's in the 2008+ E60 LCI turn signals in the tail. I'm probably the first one that's done this. I'm sure there will be more. And The usual turn signals are either Red (US) or Amber (Non-US models). I changed the color to White. Some pictures look bluish white, but that is my White balance incorrectly set.

On a side note, I was able to wire up my car to mimic the 2008+ LCI e60's unarming feature. The LCI Tail rods, license plate, Headlight eyebrows and Angel eyes light up when unlocking the car.

So Enjoy the pictures and video.

looks cool, but aren't the rear turn signals suppose to be either amber or red to be legal?

Correct, but I never had a problem from law enforcement. I know everyone in California has strict guidelines on any car modifications.

You're right. Sorry about that, I didn't realize the pictures were huge too. Deleted the multiple pics and resized
