Will these fit my 08 LCI 550i?

[kal476]

Hey guys. Long time lurker. First time poster. I'm new to any type of forums so if I make a mistake please forgive me. I have a 2008 550i LCI. Two days ago a little boy accidentally threw a baseball at my left tail light, and cracked it. It wasn't a huge deal, since it was already cracked and I'm looking for a new set of tails anyway.
So, I've found these amazing looking Spyder tail lights that are smoked. Here's the link.

Problem is, I can't find any LCI tail lights!! This set of tails is for an 04-07 550i. Even though my car is an 08 LCI, will these fit?
Please help as I don't think I can make it much longer with this cracked tail light!!

Shameless self bump

this thread tells me that fitment won't be a problem. But wiring... might be. I did not dig deep enough to figure that out. Give it a read:

I can't find anything regarding the differences in wiring between LCI and Pre LCI.
100% sure my car is LCI. Are there such things as LCI 2007 550i's?

In that thread the discussion is to use LCI lights for pre-LCI car and having to do wiring modification. I would guess some modification would be required other way around also... PreLCI lights to use in LCI car.


I did a quick search on realoem.com and I see that under LCI e60. the earliest 550i available is from Nov 2005 with N62N engine
