I think they are related to the touch function. I know on the Gxx cars with hand gesture control there are three sensors on each side if I remember right. I just know in testing blocking and unblocking them with my thumbs stopped and initiated the false laser alert respectively. I've got them taped off now with no issue. If I remember tomorrow I'll take a look at an '18 m4 tomorrow that doesn't have touch screen and seen if it's the same hardware. Bmw is good at installing the same hardware in similar cars just coding functions in and out so there's a decent chance they are the same screen with the same lights just the head unit isn't coded to accept touch input from the screen. No promises but I'll take a peek if I get a chance tomorrow.
