Nope! The blinkers are on the side.

Really appreciate you taking time to take those photos. They look good to me. I guess these are more "normal" than laser light.

Hmm might wrap or paint the plastic middle part yellow (laser is blue) to make up for it 🤣 normal ain't bad

Yea

I would add the laser light to my build if I could. But it looks like it currently isn't available to any 4 series. Not sure about 3 series.

No worries man. I actually think they look good as well but it’s their performance that is really disappointing. My M2C’s adaptive LED’s were 100 times better than these. Oh and these don’t move/turn with the steering. Really miss that. Anyway, lasers or not, you’ll love the car

Ordered a '22 G82 and i wanted these so bad but BMW does not have the parts to produce these. Hopefully they can be added on later.

I would double check with your dealer. I have a 2022 G80 on order and was able to option them. For '22, they are no longer part of the executive package and are a standalone option denoted by code "5AZ." Cost is $1,000.

Yep, I just placed my order on the 12th and that's what I was told. Did you place your order before that?

Yeah, placed mine back in June. Maybe wasn't an issue then. I'm sorry you're not able to equip them, man.

Yep, not too down about it. I'm sure they'll be available in the aftermarket world sooner or later.

My spec was put in on the 13th of this month and I have the laser lights optioned on my G80.

Since the M3 and M4 is produced in different locations that could be the issue for you not being able to option them currently. Could be a more severe part shortage in one factory versus the other.

I will get a M3 if it means I can get laser lights lol. Thanks for providing that info. I'll reach out to my dealer.

I placed my order with the LED w/laser lights on 7/2 and it went into production yesterday.

My order went in on 7/13/21 and lasers are on my build. They're separate from the exec package as others have mentioned. For the poster saying he can't add, I'd check with your dealer.

Keep in mind that M3 and M4 allocations are different and not interchangeable so your dealership may not have any open M3 allocations at the moment. Still worth reaching out to them if you are serious about switching the type of vehicle you buy just to get different headlights.

I am aware. I'm indifferent between picking the M3/M4. But if I'm missing out on something that makes the car looks so much better, especially at that price point, it's worth it to re-consider my choices, in my opinion. The regular headlights already don't look & perform that well and 5 years from now, they'll be a complete joke.

Add it now before you can.. Id ask a genius or your SA.. Separate replacement will cost like 5k... Part and labor..

sleepdoc · 07-15-2021, 05:26 PM

I think the standard lights look decent. The upgraded Laser Lights do look better though.

I don’t have them on my current build, but after reading this thread and looking closely, I wouldn’t mind having them for 1k. I called my SA to see if they could be added- we’ll see but I doubt it. I’m a week 30 build M3C that has begun production. Either way, not a deal breaker for me.
