E92 face-lift tail lights changing from pre

[Feraz]

Good day Beemers

Please help me out here. I found a couple of threads but I am failing on DIY. The wiring colours are failing me even though I even got the socket connection clippers cut out of the facelift car.

Is there sum1 who specializes in fitting them or helping with the wiring. I'm in Johannesburg.

Thanks in advance.

Just buy the harness and save yourself the headache. It was a few hundred from BMW, if I remember correctly.

Should be around R900 with the connectors.

then just google for the retrofit guide for you car, which will tell you which wires need to be re-pinned...

With the harness, no additional wiring needs to be done, literally plug and play.. Only additional coding to be done to switch off the bulb checks that will throw an error on the OBC (done via Carly/Bimmercode).

Thanks a lot guys... I just called BMW, they are confused I think. Coz they are saying the harness comes complete with the body harness

Here is the part number for the harness/retrofit cable:

B 61 12 2 181 307 - I paid R650 for it in 2020 for reference.
