I agree with the above two posts...I like the LED color but have no interest in making my plate easier to read for other drivers or law enforcement. I have a tinted cover on my plate already for this reason.

Do that in California and you'll get pulled over in no time.

Just a question.. Has anyone tried replacing the x5 OEM license plate modules with the OEM LED modules from the current 3 series? I have a 2011 x5 and when I had a 2010 3 series as a loaner I looked at the LED modules and they have the same connector and are the same shape and size. Looks like an easy swap. Unfortunately I was not able to try it myself.

That's a great question! Maybe if someone has or knows a competent Parts Dept. employee....we can ask!

That would be intersting info. Someone needs to find out, or call for pricing. It might be worth a shot.

A quick search on RealOEM shows an LED license plate light for an E90 Sedan. ~$15 for the light assembly and $1-2 for some other part.

Please let us know if it works! Do you have a 328/335 coupe or sedan? Is is a 2011?

If it works, just let us know your exact car and year, so we can get the same exact part at the dealership. Thanks a lot!
