Doesn't that depend on which warranty you are covered by?

The DRLs/Angel Eyes/Corona Rings just require the simple changing of an H8 halogen bulb. I buy mine on eBay, for like $16/pair.

The dealer will replace them, while you wait in the Service Bay...it will take like 5-10 mins!

Warranties vary quite a bit by marketing organization in terms of what is covered, and for how long. My experience is that BMW in the US has quite different rules than BMW in Canada, even though I live less than 100 km from the US. I don't know what BMW Norge covers, but I am sure their warranty policy addresses it.

yes it is covered under the manufacturer's warranty (or the maintenance plan, dont recall exactly which one). I had two of mine replaced, all covered.

You gotta check it with BMW Canada. It might be bit different from us vehicles. I drive an x5 imported from us in Canada. Breaks are covered in the us, but w
We pay for them here. If I bring my vehicle to a us dealer, yes it's covered by maintenance program, not under warranty. THe us program is not honored in Canada
