EDIT: I may be wrong. I'm not sure now. Looking at photos it looks very much like they have the same shape. It's been a while since I've looked at them closely in person, but my recollection is that the shape is slightly different. Maybe it was an optical illusion.
I didn't require any of this, I will note though that my car is RHD and we don't have those yellow DRL you guys have. Also, I'm pretty sure, I've seen people from the US do this change and they required no coding.
This looks like a US guy, as you can see the indicators work just like before and it was just plug and play for him as well. The headlights are about $400 a corner though. In Australia I didn't even bother asking BMW how much they are, they probably would have been around $1500 each. (Usually parts a 3.5x more expensive here)
I think you have the xenon's, so I don't know if the xenon PRE-LCI can even be swapped with the LCI ones, because I swapped halogen to halogen. You can google it, I'm sure there are answers to that question
Also with your DRL's, in Australia we don't have to turn them on, from what I can tell in the US, the side blinkers are your DRL's, so I assume even if you got the it would be whatever it was on your old lights, so if it was the parkers, then the angel eyes would become your DRL's. Even if you needed coding its pretty simple, you need a laptop a cable and some software you can get easily for free.
The angel eyes are wired in, and all canbus based. No errors but does require the front bumper removal.
There is also an eyebrow light and twin front led which sits between the both angels.
