Maybe a vendor who is selling a lot these can have a video of the brake lights and turn signals operating with the sun directed to it. Seems like a common concern that is holding back a considerable amount of purchases. Thats the only reason why I haven't bought it. I saw one in person, don't know the batch, and the turn signal was extremely dim and made the lights look cheap.

The lights housings are sealed and can not be opened easily so bulb replacement is an unreasonable effort.

I broke down and ordered a set of replicas. I'm already pretty mixed on them so i'll see how I feel about them when installed. Since mine is a '15, the OEM tail lights definitely do show their age a little bit.

I saw Bimmerplug mentioned earlier. They claim to be using their own in-house design and manufacturing. Has anyone used them? It seems like a nice third-party option that might be a little higher quality than the alibaba/vland option.

Turn signals? You can actually use them?

Had the G30 style for a few months now but never got around to posting it. Besides actually enjoying how they look, turn signals are insanely bright which was my biggest gripe with the OLED style both V1 and V2.

GTS Style OLED Taillights



I have these on my car from Bimmer Plug, and they look amazing. Pricing is decent as well.

We have 8 sets of GTS-style OLED lights left in stock. Have a Black Friday sale going at the moment as well. Grab a set while it lasts. We offer a Lifetime Warranty on these lights unlike any other vendor out there. When it comes to any aftermarket lights, there is always a possibility of random weak points. We offer lifetime support for our products. We will replace them for free if that ever happens.
