I fitted xenon to mine and had to have it programmed to the car but am pretty sure if just replacing for the sake of the strip should ba a straight swap. |

Straight swap. The function of the signature strip as a side light is recognised (instead of a dimmed DRL) straight away without any modification. 2016 BMW X3 30d SE in red

Gave the car a wash today and swapped the near side headlamp back to the original non-signature version to do a comparison. Not a great photo but with the side lights on, you can see the off side is using the signature as a sidelight and on the near side a dimmed DRL instead.

My FL is a 2013 GS with halogen HB3 bulbs and LED round driving lamps, no signature LED. Totally standard.

Yes I have done this on mine but you will have to get an indie to program as most dealers will not! |
