BMW Logo Lights When Doors Open

Has anyone added these to their vehicle in Canada? When you open the door the light shines the BMW logo on the ground. Looks kind of neat. Anyone know the cost of this??

I picked up a set a couple weeks ago. Install was a breeze, you do -not- have to trim the door panel opening like the instructions point out.

I think it's pretty cool with the X logo, pic attached. It also comes with the BMW Roundel, BMW letters in white and a set for M series. I picked it up on eBay for $97.

That looks unreal. Is it just a cap that goes over the light?

It's a swap out of the existing puddle light fixtures.

I don't think its tacky at all..maybe the ///M one is. but not the BMW roundel or BMW....my wife's 2016 Range Rover came like this from the factory, except the light is actually coming from the bottom of the mirrors. Looks great at night!

I believe on the Evoque and possibly Range Rover Sport models, it actually says RANGE ROVER in the typical Range Rover font.

I just don't want any Batman signal's coming out of my car.. lol

I don't care if Bentley or any other Lux cars have them.. They also plaster their exteriors with badges and shiny plastic chromes too, but it doesn't mean it's cool or attractive
