Stainless steel accelerator cover fitted but brake pedal cover is a different shape/size from other BMWs (same as 2 Active Tourer) so need to rethink that one or modify it to fit.



M logo startup screen in place of the ConnectedDrive logo:

M logo Startup needs to be coded in iDrive using Esys Launcher.

Hi all
I now have the Mud flaps fitted.
Very happy with them.

I though I should also add a pic of the puddle lights for those who are interested.

Sorry for the late reply.
I got this from the local shop in Taiwan.
It is around USD 35 each.
I checked with them , and they only sell this in Taiwan.

I was worried that you were going to say that

You should buy some in bulk and start shipping

The puddle lights look great! Did you have any trouble installing them?

I bought a set off Amazon (designed for the F30) but they don't fit my X1. About 4mm too long and can't squeeze into the door trim.

What's the point of the logo puddle lights?

I think this is from the same factory in China, but the size is not right.
The one I have is for F45, and dia. is like below: (7.5CM)

Nothing really. I like them, even if they are a bit 'look at me'
They were part of the package when I did the deal to buy the X1.
The Logo seems to indicate depth (in clear water) better than the white.
Maybe it is due to the two colour circles and cross overs.
I have the white lights on my F20 and they glare on a wet surface.

Two on ebay, look like from the same factory, both 7.6cm, one slightly longer than the other:

The black pipes look nice. Can I just ask: do the extensions fit over the existing chrome tips or have to remove the original tips first? Easy to fit?

Very easy to install.
Just remove the original chrome one(twist it out clockwise), and push the new one in.

A friend of mine who has a F20 had the same problem,
He says that they are the same width so he fixed it by using a box cutter or utility knife to gentle trim out one end and fitted them that way.
Only issue is that you cannot go back to the original standard white lights
You would have to buy the F30 whites (E Bay) to change them back

I have seen the ones on his F20 in operation.
I cannot see any difference in the light quality or logo clarity.

Thanks I think most people aren't aware of the length difference.

I managed to install them last night. Didn't want to make irreversible changes to the door trim so what I did was saw and file a small groove on one side of the light housing so the door trim could slot into it, allowing the housing to be pushed further in. That did the trick!

Nice!! I actually ordered the one with the slant tips from china, fingers crossed that they fit! Taking a gamble lol

The ones on ebay 7.6cm wide are 11cm length and 10cm length.

My LED door sill light and 3rd party puddle lights installed - looks alright for a non-OEM product I think. Not sure how long it lasts looking nice and bright though.

Picked up my F48 xLine in Platinum Silver yesterday, had only time to take some pics with the phone...
