    Default Okay, so I have a question

    I spent some of this morning looking at all of the great pics that were posted recently and it brought up a question.

    In several of the pics the e34's in question have a side light mounted behind the front tire well, above the side moulding strip. (look at liquidtiger's main message)

    Did that light come on newer e34's or is it an add-on?

    Can I put them on my '92?

    If so, where do I get them and any idea about procedure?

    Default they became standard feature in 1995 model year...

    and may have started in late production 1994 models. Since they are a standard BMW part...I'm sure if you're handy with a saw and elec wiring...they can be added.

    If you go to the online parts database...you can find the numbers and possibly the start date: www.realoem.com/bmw
