*NEW GTS Taillights for the F34 GT! (Check it out)
Hey everyone! After a long time of waiting and waiting, GTS taillights are finally being made for the F34 GT. There is currently one online listing for them and it is for sale on AliExpress. If any of you guys are interested in checking them out or purchasing them, feel free to check out the link I have pasted below. Please reply to the thread if you purchase them or own them, as I am very curious as to how they will turn out. I have contacted the seller, and he said he does not have any actual photos of the taillights yet (only renderings). It seems odd, but hopefully they look great! (FYI: These taillights are ONLY plug and play for LCI models and will require additional steps for PRE LCI)

Not too keen on dishing out 900 dollars to a seller on AliExpress and risk some shady product where, as you said so yourself, there aren't even any actual photos - just renders… |

Also, keep in mind foreign and domestic shipping may currently be on backorder and take longer than expected to ship. I had ordered coilovers overseas in Europe and it took forever due to "pandemic and supply/demand". This product looks good on picture, keep in mind its being produced/shipped from China.

Aliexpress / other chinese websites are fine to purchase off, but I wouldn't buy anything that isn't reviewed. As to it being $900, that's probably a good thing (means either you're getting insanely ripped off, or the chinese seller actually secured good manufacturing, not "chinesium" style manufacturing lol). I'd wait for photos of the actual lights (not just one picture of it installed) and reviews though.

Link: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DcQ2nj1 The lights are $550 USD as of today. Many users in the 3/5/6 GT Facebook forum have installed their lights and posted videos. Go check it out! |

I think this is for personal taste since for me these remind the Infinity tail lights - F30 GTS tail lights by Vland have been around for some time. Saw them in person and was not impressed with brightness of those on the road. Not feeling comfortable/safe personally.
Question: Looked through available links and images... I do not see the rear LED fog light in the boot assemblies... Am I not seeing those due to images being dark?

Has anyone in THIS forum actually bought these?
If so, can you confirm the presence/absence of the rear fog light? These are mandatory in the EU/UK. |

Yes, I’m the original poster and yes I have purchased them. The taillights are great and I have no regrets buying them. Since I live in the United States, I’m not sure if the rear fogs work. There is a way for me to cut off the plastic tabs on the existing rear fog light button to make the rear fog lights function in US cars. If I decide to cut off the tabs I will respond to this thread with an update. If you’re looking for actual pictures of the taillights, check out my instagram: bimmerbren

Would you be able to post good quality pics of the lights you have to show that there is a cluster of LED's for fogs or not? Pls see my earlier post in this thread with pics showing where the OEM LCI boot mounted assemblies have the rear fog light LED cluster.

The video accompanying THIS duplicate of the GTS rear lights shows the rear fog light is actually located with the reversing light instead of the "normal" position.

On YouTube, there is a video of Taiwanese netizen F35's Dragon Scale Tail Lamp installation. If you have any questions in the forum, you can go and see his installation video first. It is quite troublesome and needs to be changed. A cable needs to be connected between the left and right tail lamps.

So I spent some time and filed down the rear fog button. Also did some BIMMERCODE coding and the fog lights are indeed functional. There are red LEDs behind where the reverse light normally is shown. |
