Still can’t get those other trunk lights (rear fogs) to go on. I can only get them to go on if I wire it seemingly incorrectly as they blink with my reverse lights.

Maybe they’re meant to be activated under brake force display activation... dunno.

Also to add... the wiring connectors SUCK. The pins don’t want to go in easily and I actually had to take two pins out and connect them outside of the plastic connector. You can see where the plastic is warped and just isn’t good strong material like OE connectors. YMMV

Oh and my reverse lights are evenly lit. When you look head on, they’re even but from an angle, one does appear to be brighter than the other.

I’m going to wait on Solas pricing because it’s not much sense to me to plop another $500/$600 for V2’s.

Hey so I have the same issue with my oled tail lights where they are flickering on the reverse lights. Can you please help me. I have a 2018 f80 m3 and the wiring is the same exact as the one you posted on here.

Basically the blue connector needs to be connected to the similarly sized black connector.
The 4 or 5 pin smaller connector is the only one that should be plugged. Basically you only need one of them connected to the main harness on the box. There is a smaller 4/5 pin connector for the trunk lights.
The two wire is to be used for inside trunk lights if required due to model year.

Connect those two together and the smaller black connectors go to the other light connectors. Can’t remember off hand if both or just one.

just something to add for pre-LCI cars doing this mod, you will need to get LCI replacement rubber gutter drain shrouds to ensure proper seal. The LCI/ GTS lights are a different shape and the pre-LCI shrouds will leave a gap for water ingress under heavy rain. I've got condensation in my lights now after an entire day in the rain. You cannot see it when closed, but at roughly $25 per side, it's easier for the OCD to just replace them.

Does anyone have a link to the V2? Saw the links in previous page but can't find where it says v1 or v2.

V1 has 5 panels in the trunk light and V2 has 4, along with a vein running along the top of the panels. Also V2 has a different startup sequence. Go through the the previous posts to see differences. From there, you can identify a seller.

Not at this time. Possibly some time this year? I think there’s some additional info on the past couple pages.

I believe david51 said one of the mfgs was working on a set for the M4 and should be available springtime.

Thanks. Seems odd that m3 was only done. Pretty sure near zero folks think OEM is money well spent

There are more sedans, platform wise, than 2 door variants, worldwide. Remember that this also fits the F30 platform and not just the F80.

Some will argue the justification of the OEM OLED lights regardless.

I sure hope they’re working on these for the F82! I’d definitely try a set out.
