Yes, you will need 4 modules on each headlight in order for it to work plus custom wiring and coding.

I got it from my local BMW Parts supplier they get their parts from wrecked F10's.

I paid $1000 for the pair of LED LCI Headlights and a free polish to make it look like new.

Not bad for $1000, considering this is a fraction of the price you pay from BMW.

Plus quite so knowledge I guess, since it needs custom wiring and coding.

Good work, though expensive, and lots of work, for what you get in the end, just my opinion.

Forgive my ignorance on the topic, but I absolutely love xenon adaptive setup that came on my car. I get to drive lots of different cars frequently, and I feel that xenon headlights on F10s are just superb.

What am I missing ? What makes these so much better and worth going the extra mile ?

considering i've seen each for around 800$ used, thats a pretty good deal.
Too much to go with them tho, I've been thinking about sending mine out to OSS design and getting them to make them look as close as possible to LCI ones.

The description is a bit confusing as to what they are. Cool concept tho

The seller claims "There is also a cheaper generic version being sold for more to unsuspecting buyers." Therefore, the brand he is seller is the more expensive version of the generic LED headlight assembly.
