Hi everyone, my 3GT is at the BMW Dealer

I will pick up my new car next week. Can't wait to install the OEM LED fog lights that have been sitting on my desk for a month. Will post some picture when the installation and the coding were done.

Very nice!

I wasn't aware there was OEM LED fog lights? I even asked my dealership...

(But I'm putting in LED H8 bulbs in the fig housing)

Interesting - do you know the specs of the bulbs originally installed?

Thanks. They're the OEM LED fog lights assemblies (including the housing and reflector) for the 4 series. The non-LED version fog lights for the 4 series have the same P/N as the 3GT. I figured that they should be direct fit/replacement.

They can be found here:

I hope the car comes your way soon and we get to see more pics - hopefully you also find time to upgrade those LEDs and let us know the details.

Cool... If the PN'S are the same, reason and logic would suggest that it should fit.

Let us know how that works out!

Thanks everyone.

To answer ipilcher's question:
"The benefits of LED Lighting are endless. LED Lights are energy efficient, cost effective, durable and more. They are the lastest technology in lighting and offer a great alternative in replacing your current halogen or standard lights.", from http://www.led-lamps.net.au/led-basi...f-led-lighting

More importantly (IMO), they look great and better color matching to the Xenon head lights...
