Rear European (LEFT) Tail Light with Backup - Please add info

Hey guys I wanted to get a few guys in here to not only add info but to also confirm part numbers for the Euro Tail Upgrade.

Our Clubman (R55) models whether LCI or not has the "One of your lights are out" Syndrome.

Its not only annoying but night illumination is terrible. And cops who don't know the actual law do notice it.

NON-LCI Part Numbers Left Tail Assembly with BackUp (Euro Right-Hand-Drive)
- Amber Indicator: 63212755115
- White Indicator: 63212755117

.....................................

Does anyone have the LCI Part Number handy?

More than a few.

There was a vendor selling these for North American use. Dang... who was that?

Those numbers are almost correct but both are missing a digit: http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?...49&hg=63&fg=20

For LCI, the listing on RealOEM is odd in that the image is wrong (R56 style). I have no idea whether the part numbers are also wrong. If you go through a Euro vendor, they should be able to find the correct part. However, doesn't the USA LCI taillight have red turn signals? If the Euro LCI flashes amber, you'd have to get a matching set of Euro LHD and Euro RHD taillights.

Good catch. I edited it above. Great info.

I also saw the same with the R56 tail image coming up. Visually the LCI lights are identical. You may be right about how when the indicator comes up they may have a different color. The E92 LCI BMW tails have that. US flashes red and Euro flashes Amber. If the MINI does in fact do the same it would probably not even be worth it having to buy both LHD/RHD Euro Lights. Not even sure why BMW would waste their time manufacturing another set of lights.
