well not really, the idea is so people can see which one is brighter. Even though they do have fitment for all BMW from 1-Z

any strobing with the mtec? I hear the lux strobes during the fade on/fade off during locking and unlocking your car. Does Mtec do this?

When you lock/unlock, the "flicker/strobe" effect is simply the nature of how the LED behaves and there's no way around it. Though, when you start the car it does not strobe nor flash.
