Upgrading the tail lights on your E90 BMW isn’t expensive, but it makes a big visual impact on the look of the rear end. Installing these lights was simple and the whole job can be done in about 15 minutes. This is one of those modifications that I wish I had done a long time ago.
These lights utilize the factory lightbulb module, meaning they are plug-and-play with no additional wiring or coding required. Since these use the stock light bulbs, there is no compromise in the visibility or reliability of the lights.
Eventually, I would still like to do a full LCI conversion on the rear of the car. But for now, these are a much cheaper alternative and I’m really happy with how the car looks.

I don't even have a bmw I have a Audi B7 A4 but I still watch these, your videos are so clean 👌
I appreciate that! That means a lot to me 🙏
Keith Dunn 2.0T or 3.2?
2.0t fwd
Audi A4 B7 is the shit, got same car
better than the Vauxhall/ opel insignia that i drive xD
Looks awesome! Great job, Justin 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks again!
Unlike everything else on my 2006 330i, I was surprised how easy it is to replace a tail light.
Love the E90 tail lights, I think it's an iconic look. That being said, these look great as well. Cheers
I still think the LCI tail lights are my favorite. Maybe one day I’ll do the full conversion
*A few years go...* I got into the whole BMW rabbit hole. This is about the time I found your channel, Justin. Well, I never did end up getting that BMW but, it got my GF got the itch and picked herself up a 2008 BMW 328i. I might need to buy these for her.
Do it! Valentine’s day is coming 😉
I agree with you on the pre lci rear brake light but I have seen them on the lighter silver or even white cars and look so nice because that reverse light part really blends in a lot better and it really brings out the L shape accent of the rest of the light. I have a dark graphite e90 and was thinking about tinting the lens to a nice smoke to help blend it in better.
Great style upgrade, Justin! I did it together with my son, (8 old years) I only handed the tools 💪
100% I agree about pre LCI E90 design.
always loved how these looked on dark colored e90's
Just by tinting the white reverse light part makes it look so much better for really cheap!
I’m with you on the design of pre LCI tail lights, these are a better upgrade... stock LCI tail lights are very nice however.
I agree. Eventually I'd like to convert the rear to LCI
these are basically the original european tail lights but smoked
@@jazielalessandri Blacklines/whitelines weren't the stock tail lights. The original European tail lights are almost exactly like the ones he got rid of. Only difference is that the European blinker lens is dark orange (almost not noticeable) instead of red.
US headlights however look very different bc they have those orange reflector things
@@justinbuice hey if the car is LCI is it the same procedure?
@@frenchmontana423 same exact procedure
I think the tail lights are the best part of the car but, these make them look even better
This is a must-do on Pre-LCI E90's! Looks great!
Thank you!
Thx for all the videos about the e90, that really helped me a lot. Im a owner of an e90 320i :))) greet from Germany
Weißt du ob die rücklichter bei uns zugelassen sind? 😁
@@SpeedDemonsTiger ja klar wieso nicht? Sind doch Serie, hab die mir vor nem Monat gekauft, original sogar und TÜV bekommen etc :)
@@marcelmuller620 dachte vllt weil sie so dunkel sind 😬 danke für die Antwort 😁
Wo hast du deine bestellt wenn ich fragen darf?
Aso, nene die sind original :) ähm hab die günstig für 80 Euro bei eBay Kleinanzeigen bekommen :)
Gotta appreciate he mentioned the temp in c°
You should honestly have your dad create his own channel to help show off all the little details in his little projects those are really awesome
I’ve been telling him to! I think he is going to retire in the next year or so and if he wants to, i will get his channel set up and I offered to help with the editing
Just found your channel. I love how you put the bolt size in the corner. Great channel and you earned a sub
Welcome to the channel!
I actually used to like the white on the reverse light but I prefer the lci lights better
The production value of your videos just keeps going up!
Indiana E92 owner saying thanks a ton for this wealth of information on these cars.
Glad I can help :)
Yo Justin i v been following since 2018 and no regrets.... only lots of help. Thanks man. cant wait to do that diy mod
The taillights are one of my favorite parts about my bmw haha
Production is always 🔥, it’s the simple stuff like showing the white blinkers vs the amber things like that really makes it next level
Thanks man! It’s all in the details 🧐
I like the smoky finish on them.
Scrolled through 10 or so subscriptions in my feed and clicked on yours
Thank you 🙏🏻
Awesome! Appreciate your channel, Justin. I still have an '06 E90 and your vids help so much!
I've been watching your videos for a while and just now noticed you're also from Michigan. Really considering getting an E90 and all of your videos on them have really given me a lot of outlook on them! At least now I know that this car can withstand the Midwest haha.
I have replaced my tail lights this week as well
lol, the tailights on the e90 Pre LCI is what I like the most about the car. The LCI ones are wwaay worst since the shape is cut and does not fit well with the fixed part (the part not attached to the trunk). But I do like these ones you are installing here, they look really nice
Ordered mine. Can't wait to install
Once again thank you so much for helping me
Dude So cool, Awesome video , Defenitly inspired me to change the lights, BTW awesome Spoiler
Thanks!
Looks fantastic!
I've been saving up for the M3 front control arm upgrade for my 06 330i. You make me want to spend it on new tail lamps lol
Great work brother, what a difference, been thinking of getting a set of these for a while, love how the black just goes with the black of the car🙌🏼
Thanks man!
Well it looks much better now well done again 👍🏽
Improves the look of the rear end !
One of the first thing I did on my 13 E70 was to replace all brake and turn signals bulbs to LED. Also the amber front turn signals and fog lights.
Hahaha just gotta love the weather up here!! The lights look great. Saw someone's E90 at Chipotle with the exact same thing a couple days ago and wondered how he got it, perfect timing 👍
And now it's cold again. Go figure! Soon it will be pothole season
At least in America you got the red reflectors for the turn signals, here in Europe they made them orange so it looks even worse lol. Great video btw
Thanks! We have orange reflectors in the headlights that look silly to me
looks so much better
My dad has those taillights too💪❤😍
nice!
I agree man! The lights look so dated on the first gens, the upgrades look clean.Nice video like always.
Thank you!
Wow you are a genius.. it is not that easy. Nice video!
I have the E91 LCI but that tail lights are great in your car. :)
I only have LED on the Angel Eyes, but now its difficult discover the headlight with that color of white for the low beam. I don't have xenon like you. :|
Thanks Justin, love your videos!
Just picked up a set for $160 on eBay. Worth a shot. I kind of wanted the Mars lci style lights but like to keep it subtle at the same time. I questioned the white/smoke and wanted more red like lci. But they're darker and don't stick out like the old white one
Hey by chance did you buy these ones? Reason I'm asking is cuz I got mine same price too but everytime I turn the car on both "turn signal light malfunction" till I hit the turn signals on both side and the errors dissapears. Is there anyway to get rid of the error? www.ebay.com/itm/133437712040
Thank bro! Great video, I just needed it!
much better!!!
Great video, this something I have been wanting to do. I had the headlights swapped for tinted version. They are a bit pricey, but look amazing on my 320i
I owns a e90 and I don’t understand why is E90 so underrated
👍 Looking forward to the airbrush video.
For once BMW makes the install easy!
Yes! and unlike the headlights, I didn't have to take the wheels off the car for these!
Thanks for the video. Would have loved a before and after tho. :p
I think it looks better too. Looks more factory than factory which I'm sure was the aim.
Good vid. Bro. I really love to a amber/yellow taillight in the taillight. IMO, Yellow lighting is more visible than Red. I probably will get one kit from your list to install it myself.
You should do a video on your dads collection of models
Привет друг!! Очень интересные видео у тебя получаются, и познавательные. Делай больше видео)) С уважением Олег с Одессы)
Dope video bro
I change the back lights too. I look better!
I think the lci tail lights give it a more modern look
i like the lci tail lights much more but you need the trunk there for
Should upgrade to white led reverse
Looking good bro 👍
Thanks!
Just changed my e90 bulbs to LED for the taillights, number plate and hazards. Try them, will make your car look younger ;)
Looks great.
Thanks!
Great job bro👌
Thank you!
Cool video👍
How to upgrade your bmw tail lights; buy new tail lights.
that's like everything though, "how to upgrade your exhaust/speakers/suspension" etc
@@mrgcc or just use a tint
Bought the exact same tailight, i have a bug inside one of the left corner, other than that, everything is good!
Can you do a video of the top basic car maintenance that should be done on either bmw or in general
I can do that :)
Much better. 100%
Love the videos
Thank you!
Tail lights look amazing
Thank you!
I personally disagree with the opinion of the standard taillights as for me it seems to be one of the best things about this car
Euro tail lights looking sexy good job best Detailed diy videos you the man JB
Yeah I agree the tail lights just look boring to me. But I think you shoulda done LED’s or brighter bulbs cause it’s not very bright in the video
Great videos, I wish you owned an Audi :)
I just discovered some pictures of the E90 clay model and a crash test prototype having a different taillight design than the production model.. There were no taillights mounted but the shape of the gap lets me think that they would've looked very similar to the taillights of a 2006-2011 Honda Civic Sedan or the 2005 Audi A4 Wagon. I don't know why they changed the design but I'm really curious about how the car would look with those pre production bow shaped taillights.
Really helpful video these m3 tail lights always looks better on e90s in my opinion
It would be hard for me to be putting money into upgrading a 15 year old bimmer but it looks good regardless
Going in mine next 👍🙂
Nice! 😎
I have E91 and im thinking about the same upgrade for some time but it is a pain to actually have these for touring. Much easier and cheaper to find sedan tails.
I can text my friend and ask if his vendor sells them
@@justinbuice Not sure about shipping costs to N-Europe though, but worth a shot. :)
Great video here Justin. Thanks. Quick question… do you have a recommendation for upgrading / changing the headlights? I’m driving the 2006 330i.
Are they not just the same tail lights but with a tint ? So essentially you could of just tinted them with a wrap at a fraction of the cost?
Hey! I just purchased a set through ECS tuning, you definitely inspired me to get these.
You said it’s illegal to have a white rear turn signal?
So it either has to be that orange or red?
And let’s say I did go white, would it just be a fix it ticket?
I would have detailed the inside of the panel where the lights sit haha
Bruh you would have polished the light bulbs 😂💡
is it possible to get a playlist of the music you add to your videos, i love them. Are they on soundcloud/apple music?
Awesome. Taillights are def the worst looking aspect of my 2006. Might be using your link this Spring.
Nice! These are a big improvement :)
Love it. I did the $14 red tint mod to cover the stock light for solid red. Found Pre-cut film on Amazon and came out decent. I reviewed it there but this is way cooler! Will probably flip out and buy a set this spring too! Great video! My video review not up yet but this is the product I got Precut Vinyl Tint Overlay for... www.amazon.com/dp/B01M9AUGIP
nice
Hey Justin, i wanted to see if you can show me/explain how to code the AE as drl via carly. I already tried so many ways with no luck. Thanx in advance.
can you provide us with an amazon alternative (review the vmaxzone e90 taillights)
Don't know why , but today i bought a light bulb for brake rear .and this poped up 😶🌫️
Nice video. Do they have upgraded lights like this for kia optimas?
Great video! Would you say the tail light lines now are brighter than they were on the original tail lights , or same brightness??
Thanks! The brightness is the same
LCI looks much better.
One day I'd like to do the conversion
Nice. I wanted it to. But sold the car.🙂
Pedal shifts and navigation. 2011 328xi coupe or 2010 335i coupe ??..... Help.
Hello mate if you could kindly advice which Led light bulbs are suitable for 320i 2007 e90
Could you tell me where can I buy that taillights plz? Thanks
I know you don't have the E90 anymore but do you think this will fit my e90 328i xdrive 09
All my lights are working.
But the light wont go away though I did notice that my right head light is brighter than the left. 2010 328i bmw sedan
Sorry Justin for typo your name.
