CSL-Style Arrow-DRL LED Headlights — BMW 4 Series (G22) & M3/M4 (G80/G82)
Full Bi-LED Conversion with Switchable DRL — Fits Standard LED, Laserlight & LCI Arrow DRL — 2021–2025+
BMW 4 Series (G22 / G23 / G26) • M3 (G80) • M4 (G82) • 2021–2025+
The LCI Arrow-DRL signature — available for every G-chassis 4 Series and M3/M4, regardless of model year. Whether you're upgrading a 2021 pre-LCI or adding switchable DRL color to your 2024+ LCI, these purpose-built Bi-LED assemblies deliver the aggressive Arrow light design, a high-output projector module, integrated cornering lights, and up to three DRL color modes — all through a true plug-and-play install.
Every unit is E-Marked (ECE) — road-legal in White DRL mode across the EU. No coding, no adapters, no error codes. Connect the plug and drive.
Why a complete headlight — not just a DRL module swap?
Most aftermarket CSL-style DRL modules are static — they lock your DRLs to a single color with no way to switch back to white. They carry no E-Mark or TÜV approval, which means they can fail periodic inspections and attract unwanted attention from authorities. Worse still, on LCI headlights (2024+), BMW sealed the DRL modules inside the housing entirely — a simple board swap is no longer possible. Our complete headlight assemblies solve all of this: switchable colors through the factory stalk, E-Marked certification, and full compatibility with every variant from pre-LCI standard LED through LCI Arrow DRL.
Step 1 — Identify Your Factory Headlights
Your current headlight style determines which internal harness configuration is built into your unit. Match yours below.
Standard LED (Pre-LCI)
2021–2024 · Option 5A2
Twin hex / inverted-U DRLs. No blue accents.
Laserlight (Pre-LCI)
2021–2024 · Option 5AZ
Blue inlays and "BMW Laser" etching on the lens.
Standard LED (LCI)
2024+ · Option 5A2
Vertical Arrow DRL shape.
Note: LCI Adaptive LED headlights (Arrow DRL with blue accents, option 552) use different internals and are not supported.

Step 2 — Choose Your DRL Configuration
All three options are E-Marked (ECE). Road-legal in White DRL mode throughout the EU.
White
The clean factory look.
Fixed white DRL. A straightforward upgrade to the Arrow-DRL design without multi-color switching. Ideal if you want the modern shape and nothing else.
White + Yellow
The CSL signature.
Switch between crisp White for daily driving and Selective Yellow (3000K) for the unmistakable CSL / CS motorsport presence. Always switchable back to white for inspections. The most popular configuration.
White + Yellow + Amber
Motorsport-inspired.
Three distinct DRL modes. The warm Amber adds a track-day edge that sets your car apart — always switchable back to white for inspections and daily driving.
DRL Mode Switching — No App Required
Toggle between DRL colors using your high-beam stalk. No phone, no Bluetooth module, no physical switch. Just flash and go.

White + Yellow:
White → Yellow: Flash 6× • Yellow → White: Flash 5× -
White + Yellow + Amber:
White → Yellow: Flash 5× • Yellow → Amber: Flash 6× • Amber → White: Flash 4×
Engineered to Stay on the Car
E-Marked & Inspection-Ready
E-Marked (ECE) headlight housings — road-legal in White DRL mode. Passes TÜV, MOT, and EU periodic inspections. Unlike static DRL module swaps that carry no certification and risk inspection failures, these are built to stay on the car permanently. Switch to white before any test — or leave it there full-time.
Plug-and-Play & Error-Free
Pre-wired for your specific factory harness — Standard LED, Laserlight, or LCI. CAN-bus compatible out of the box: no splicing, no flickering, no dashboard warnings, no resistor packs, and zero coding.
Bi-LED Projector — No Extra Bulbs
A single bi-LED module handles both low and high beam at approximately 6,000 lumens. Sharp cutoff line, even spread, no oncoming glare. The kind of output pattern you'd expect from OEM, not aftermarket.
Cornering Lights Included
Every variant includes a dedicated inner cornering LED. It activates automatically based on your indicator — turn signal on, cornering light on. A static, wide-angle beam that illuminates the direction you're turning into. No coding, no configuration.
Sealed Against the Elements
High-grade ABS housing with PMMA lenses, fully sealed at every joint. Designed to resist moisture ingress and condensation — not just at install, but years down the line.
2-Year Warranty
Every pair is QC'd and bench-tested before it ships. If something isn't right, we make it right. Two full years of coverage, no fine print.
Installation
This is a straightforward headlight swap that requires front bumper removal — standard practice on G-chassis BMWs. No wiring modifications, no coding, no special diagnostic tools. Allow 2–4 hours depending on your experience.
- Remove the front bumper: undo the top bolts under the hood (8mm), the wheel-arch liner screws on each side, the undertray fasteners, and disconnect any fog light or sensor wiring before carefully pulling the bumper forward.
- Unbolt the factory headlights (10mm mounting bolts — typically two on top, one on each side, one below) and disconnect the main harness plug.
- Plug the new headlight directly into your factory harness.
- Test before reassembly — verify low beam, high beam, turn signals, cornering lights, and DRL color switching.
- Reinstall the bumper, align beam height using the integrated adjusters, and you're done.
Tip: Wrap painter's tape along the fender edges before bumper removal to prevent paint chips. Keep all bolts organized — a magnetic tray helps.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The G80 M3 and G82 M4 share the same headlight mounting points and harness design as the G22 4 Series. All supported variants (Standard LED, Laserlight, LCI) apply to both.
On the LCI, BMW sealed the DRL modules inside the headlight housing — you can no longer swap just the DRL board for a different color. If you want switchable Yellow or Amber DRLs on your LCI, a complete headlight replacement is the only option. These give you that functionality at a fraction of the cost of OEM CS headlights.
Correct. These are pre-configured to communicate directly with the factory ECU across all supported variants. Plug in, test, and drive.
The headlight housings are E-Marked (ECE). Under ECE R87, DRLs must emit white light — so the White mode is fully road-legal for TÜV, MOT, and EU periodic inspections. Yellow and Amber modes should be considered for off-road, show, or personal use depending on your local regulations. Because these headlights are switchable, you can always return to white before any inspection — that's the critical advantage over static DRL modules that lock you into one color permanently.
These headlights replace the physical swiveling mechanism with a modern, fixed wide-angle Bi-LED beam pattern that provides broad peripheral coverage. The adaptive cornering function is replaced by a dedicated static cornering LED that activates with the turn signal.
No. LCI Adaptive LED headlights (option 552, identifiable by blue accents and more complex internals) use a different architecture and are not supported.
Yes, if you're comfortable with bumper removal. It's the same process used for any front-end work on a G-chassis BMW. You'll need basic socket sets (8mm, 10mm), Torx bits, and a trim removal tool. No lift required — the car can stay on the ground.
The Arrow-DRL shape is sometimes marketed as "Snake Eye" by other sellers. Our assemblies use the same DRL signature inspired by the 2024+ BMW LCI design, but are built to a higher standard — E-Marked housings, integrated cornering lights, switchable DRL colors, and a 2-year warranty. Most alternatives offer none of that.
