The only issue you will have is a light flicker at start up, that is it. Everything functions as normal.

Brake (Single and Dual stage) Blinker Indicator/Hazard Reverse Lamp Running Lamp There is a slight amount of LED flicker at startup due to BulbCheck sending voltage pulses through the system in order to verify bulb operation - this only happens for about a second and will not damage the lamp or LCM. You will also receive Bulb Out errors since the FRM does not detect resistance through a LED system. Once coding is performed, this will all be corrected.

I was at local BMW they quoted me price for lights of 2011 m3 but said there is no retrofit kit out yet along with software! Guy told me usually combine package with retrofit kit/ harness etc is cheaper than just 2 rear lights.
He thought by the end of the year we should see official package /kit that should be trouble free( 2011 lights are led and lower voltage though) |

Bulb replacement upgrade / advice - NO MORE AMBER!
There are several threads and posts regarding bulb replacement options for a '10 E93, and I'm left a little perplexed on the right way to go. I want to stick with OEM quality products and reduce the potential for Errors. Can you guys point me in the right direction. I want to swap out the amber lights/ bulbs completely if possible. Advice on:
Black side markers with white LED's Corner Lights bulbs Rear Tail light bulbs

Actually, Tom, I've heard otherwise directly from the manager of BMW Performance for BMWNA. He didn't give a timeline, but did say that a retrofit kit is in development (the harness already exists). When pressed, he said that it was more or less the same thing that you and other vendors do: lights + harness + coding of FRM3, so I can't imagine that it's going to be cheaper than just the lights.

The BMW retrofit (when available) will require a FRM3 module is installed in order to accept programming, adding to the cost.
