Leaning towards the crystal version for our gray green beauty up here.


Questions:

1 - How many LEDs in the signal? Is there a diffuser for their light or do the individual LEDs show? The ebay photos never show that.

2 - There have been posts of the pin count/position being different in MY X5's. Which pin position were used on their plug? Does it look easy to move them if needed?
I haven't counted the LEDs but they are not diffused so you see each LED when lit. That's part of the beauty, I think. There are 5 pins coming off the LED lights while the BMW harness has 7 slots. There is a little play with the LED light pins so I used a small bladed screwdriver to nudge them. One plug fit no problem at all but the other needed some tweaking because I could see a couple of the pins were sort of bumping into the plug rather than going in the slot. I did have to apply some pressure to get them together.
