Hi,

I'm looking to change the rear lights on my 2006 M5 for the LED versions. I notice there's people selling the full set on eBay for £250, but then the highly rated Bruce Miranda (?) is selling just the switching unit without the lights for the same price.

Any thoughts / suggestions?

Thanks

I'm not too clued up on E60, but if you buy the BMW lights they won't work (error messages & strobe effect) Bruce's kit resolves this.

The kit you're looking at through Ebay is just like buying any aftermarket lights.

I know it's more expensive, but I would buy the BMW parts & Bruce's kit. (he was offering a discount to BMW Car readers). Have a look on M5board, they'll give more info on this mod.

That's exactly the point though, these lights include the relays required to fit them straight to a pre 07 car without the need for Bruce's kit too, seems a bit cheap in comparison.
