EU vs US LED Adaptive Headlights?

Does anyone know if the EU version of the LCI LED Adaptive Headlights would function on a US car? I heard there are some differences but was wondering if coding them in would maybe work. Thx

From what I heard potentially the brightness is different and maybe the way the adaptive system works? Not too sure on the specifics but I believe they have different part numbers from the US version.

Not sure but perhaps they may require a different module if part numbers are different.

I personally coded my headlights brighter via Bimmercode along with a whole bunch of other things. I think thats the most we can do here in the states.

Hey everyone!

I lived in the US for several years and had a 2014 F10 M5, with adaptive LED headlights. If I remember correctly, the anti-dazzle function is deactivated by default.
Now I live in Germany and I’m on my 2nd F10 M5, the anti-dazzle feature is active here and it’s a fascinating feature 👌
