BMW G11 LCI Headlights Right Left Full LED Module

Part Numbers: 63119450617 (Left) / 63119450618 (Right)

(Standard LCI LED version — distinct from the Laserlight variant)

The LCI (Life Cycle Impulse) headlights for the G11 7 Series (2020–2022) represent a massive shift in BMW’s design language, featuring a significantly slimmer housing compared to the Pre-LCI models. These Full LED units are the “base” premium offering, providing high-intensity illumination and a modernized “U-shaped” Daytime Running Light (DRL) signature.

Technical Specifications

• Compatibility: * BMW 7 Series: G11 (Short Wheelbase) & G12 (Long Wheelbase) LCI models (2020–2022).

  • Fits 740i, 745e, 750i, and M760i.

• Technology: Full LED (Low beam, High beam, DRL, and Indicators).

• Optics: Precision-engineered LED reflectors and projection lenses for optimized light cutoff.

• Design: Slimline housing integrated with the enlarged LCI kidney grille.

Key Performance Features

• Adaptive Light Distribution: The beam pattern adjusts based on vehicle speed. At city speeds, the light is wider to illuminate sidewalks; at highway speeds, it narrows and extends for maximum visibility.

• Cornering Light Function: Integrated side-facing LEDs activate during low-speed maneuvers or when the turn signal is engaged, illuminating the blind spots of a turn.

• BMW Selective Beam: Includes high-beam assistant technology that “tunnels” around oncoming traffic, allowing you to keep high beams on without blinding other drivers.

• Instant-On Capability: Unlike older Xenon systems, these LED units reach full $6000\text{K}$ brightness and color temperature instantly, improving safety during sudden dark transitions (like tunnels).

Professional Installation & Cataloging Notes

To maintain “As New” functionality and avoid dash errors, follow these technical requirements:

1. Module Configuration: A “Complete” set must include the following externally mounted modules:

   • Main LED Driver Module (FLM): Controls the primary lighting functions.

   • DRL/Signal Module: Manages the LED light tubes and turn signal sequences.

   • Cooling Fans: Integrated into the rear of the housing to manage the heat generated by the high-power LED arrays.

2. Coding & Initialization: These headlights are “Intelligent” components. After physical installation, they must be initialized via BMW ISTA. This process teaches the car the specific voltage characteristics of the new LEDs to prevent flickering.

3. Lens Integrity: The G11 LCI lenses are coated with a specialized UV-resistant lacquer. If selling “As New” units, ensure there is no “pitting” or “sand-blasting” from road debris, as this significantly degrades the light output of LED projectors.

4. Retrofit Warning: While physically similar, retrofitting LCI lights onto a Pre-LCI (2016–2019) G11 requires a complete front-end conversion, including the hood, bumper, and grille, as well as extensive wiring modifications.
