Parts number for EU spec headlights

I recently imported a GTS from the States and am in the (not easy) process of trying to register it in Germany.

One of the last issues are the headlights which appearantly are different between the US and the EU models. So I‘m looking for a set of used ones.

Could any EU owners help me out with the correct parts numbers or pics of the labels on top of the headlight units.

Alternatively, I found a specialized company that emits EU light certificates for US spec headlights, but I cannot find the reference number they gave me anywhere on the headlight unit (this is the reference: AL SAE L U I5 P P2 DRL K 12 DOT VOL LU)

If you can find a VIN from an EU GTS, you may* be able to find the part number here:

Yep, all the part numbers are here

The individual part pages are for adaptive and non-adaptive. For the whole unit a euro spec would be NO for Japan and NO Hong Kong, AFAIK

GTS headlights are just regular F32 Adaptive LEDs.

63117377842

US v EU have different part numbers, but I don't think there are physical differences. US lights only have some adaptive functions that come standard in Europe coded out.

Thanks a lot!

I think as well that the headlight units are physically the same, but the technician reviewing the car says they need an E1 stamp on them and the installed units don‘t have that so he won‘t accept them

That's a good point, yeah. True. Rear lights share the same PN.

I think you can get them OEM to save some money by not going for OE BMW.
