I already have! They say that BMW has not yet come out with a retrofit kit for the headlights, they do not have the same connectors. However, the taillights they say are plug and play

Interesting, I checked with my local dealer on Monday and there was no stock showing anywhere for either style of LCI grill, how long ago did you place the order?

I really don't understand the delay of these grills. Are they made of Unobtanium? I have a colleague who had front end damage two weeks ago and still can't drive his car. The dealer offered to install the 2013 grill as a stop gap, but he won't go for it.

I ordered them last Saturday. Mine are being delivered from Germany like Nates.
They still need to arrive though so I am waiting for a call to say they are delayed.

Night Vision a waste?

Driving through a rural area last night, I finally tried to use my night vision for the use it was designed for. In retrospect, I shouldn't have ordered it, as I use it so sparingly. Does anyone on the board use it routinely?

That's true although I couldn't turn on a light switch in the dark so I would imagine it will take me 2 days just to fit them

You win!

BMW called me today and said that mine are now on back order again. Seems there are small allocations and then it's luck of the draw.
I look forward to seeing yours
