CSL White/Yellow Switchable DRL Modules — BMW G22 4 Series, G80 M3, G82 M4 (Laserlight)
Switchable White/Yellow DRL — Pre-Installed Heatsinks — Plug-and-Play — Pre-LCI Laserlight (Option 5AZ) — 2021–2024
G22 Coupe • G23 Convertible • G26 Gran Coupe • G80 M3 • G82 M4 • G83 M4 • i4 • Factory Laserlight (5AZ) • 2021–2024
BMW gave you the flagship headlight — Laserlight, option 5AZ, the thick-bar DRL signature that defines the M4 CSL's face. What BMW didn't give you is a way to switch it to yellow. These modules fix that — switchable from the high-beam stalk in under two seconds, plus strobe, breathing, and an automatic mode tied to your low beams. White is calibrated to match your factory Laserlight DRL color temperature; the car looks factory-correct at a glance.
Fits factory Laserlight (option 5AZ) on pre-LCI 2021–2024 G-chassis cars only. Available in separate EU-market and US-market versions — see below.
Step 1 — Is This Your Headlight?
These modules fit factory BMW Laserlight only — option 5AZ on pre-LCI 2021–2024 G-chassis cars. The giveaways: blue "L" accents inside the headlight housing, a thick horizontal light bar DRL, and often a "BMW Laser" script etched into the lens. If your car has standard LED headlights (without blue accents) or the 2024+ LCI arrow-shaped DRL, these modules are not compatible.
Laserlight (Option 5AZ)
Blue "L" inlays and thick-bar DRL signature.
Step 2 — EU or US Market?
BMW uses different electronics for EU-market and US-market Laserlight headlights, so we ship two dedicated versions. Pick the one that matches the headlight in your car, not the country you're driving in.
How to know which you have
If your car was originally sold new in the EU, UK, or any right-hand-drive market, choose EU. If it was originally a US-market car — even if it's since been imported to Europe — choose US. The original-sale market sets the headlight electronics for the life of the car. Grey-import cars retain their original headlight hardware.
Not sure? The sticker on the headlight lens carries BMW's part number. Matching it to the list below confirms your version. You can also send us your VIN and we'll look it up in under an hour.

Complete modules, not bare boards.
Each Eleron module arrives as a finished assembly — LED board bonded to its own aluminum heatsink with thermal interface pre-applied. The install is clean mechanical work: unbolt, unplug, swap, bolt. Your factory modules come out untouched and stay factory-correct in a drawer, so the upgrade is fully reversible whenever you want. No separating boards from heatsinks, no thermal paste, no board-level work.
Five modes · One stalk · No app
DRL Control
Every mode switches from your factory high-beam stalk with low beams off. Your selection persists through ignition cycles.
-
3×Manual Toggle
Switches between solid White and solid Yellow DRL. Your choice stays set until you change it.
-
5×Auto Mode Eleron Exclusive
Set it and forget the toggle. The DRL follows your low beams automatically: Yellow when low beams are off, White when they come on. Most competitor modules only offer manual toggling.
-
7×Strobe
A left-right progressive strobe in your current DRL color. Flash 7× again to switch the strobe to the other color. A show mode, not for road use.
-
11×Ambient Breathing
A slow, subtle pulse where the DRL dims in and out. Best used while parked or at idle — not intended for driving.
-
9×Reset
Returns the module to factory White DRL and clears all mode settings.
Built for Laserlight
Plug-and-Play — Zero Coding
Built specifically for the Laserlight DRL circuit. Connects to your factory controller and wiring — no coding, no CAN adapters, no error codes. Your BMW doesn't know anything changed.
Matched Pairs — Binned Together
Left and right modules are color-matched at QC before they ship, so your DRLs read identical side-to-side. Cheap imports often mix LED bins — one headlight slightly warmer than the other — and once you've noticed the difference, you can't un-notice it.
Fully Reversible
Laserlight is a premium option that holds resale value. Factory modules come out intact and go in a drawer — bolt them back in for a lease return, sale, or dealer visit. Same process, same screws, no residue.
2-Year Warranty
Two years of coverage from delivery date on every set.
Installation
Honest version: the G-chassis headlight design means the DRL modules aren't top-accessible from the engine bay. You have two paths to reach them. The cleaner method is to remove the front wheels and fender liners — this gives enough room to release the headlight mounting bolts and pull each unit forward a few centimeters to work on the back. The alternative is a full front bumper removal, which is more involved but gives you full working access.
Once you have access: disconnect the factory DRL connector from the rear of the headlight, unbolt the OEM module, plug the Eleron module into the same connector, secure with the original screws. Test both White and Yellow DRL before closing everything up. Plan for a half-day if you're comfortable with interior trim work, or book a local shop if you'd rather not touch the bumper or fender liners yourself.
Tools: T20 and T25 Torx bits, 8mm and 10mm sockets, trim removal tool, jack and stands if you're going the wheel/liner route.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. The DRL is a separate LED circuit from the laser-assisted main beam. These modules only replace the daytime-running LED board — your laser high-beam system continues to function exactly as BMW designed it. Switchable Yellow DRL plus full factory laser performance.
Three giveaways on factory Laserlight: blue "L" accents visible inside the headlight housing (the blue tint you see when the car is off), a noticeably thicker horizontal DRL light bar, and often a "BMW Laser" script etched into the outer lens. If any of these are missing, you likely have the Standard LED headlight, which needs a different product.
No. Laserlight uses different DRL electronics and a different connector from the Standard LED. We make a separate product for Standard LED cars — message us and we'll point you to it.
No. On the LCI, BMW moved to a sealed DRL assembly inside the housing — the board is no longer user-serviceable, so no aftermarket module can be fitted. The only way to get switchable yellow DRL on a 2024+ LCI is a complete headlight replacement.
Pick the market the car was originally sold in. If it was a US-market car that's now in Europe, order the US version — the headlight electronics don't change when the car is re-registered. The sticker on your headlight lens carries BMW's part number and confirms the market. If you're unsure, send us your VIN and we'll check it against the factory build sheet.
Yes. All G-chassis pre-LCI cars equipped with factory Laserlight use the same DRL module and connector — G22 Coupe, G23 Convertible, G26 Gran Coupe, G80 M3 Sedan, G82 M4 Coupe, G83 M4 Convertible, and the i4 all share this hardware.
Yes. BMW moved the DRL module further inside the housing on G-chassis cars compared to F-chassis BMWs. There's no top-down engine-bay access like on older cars. The wheel-and-fender-liner route is cleanest; the bumper route gives more working room but is more involved. A shop will quote 1–2 hours of labor.
No. The modules draw the same current as the factory DRL and speak the same CAN signals to your headlight controller. No coding needed, no codes thrown.
Not if you keep your original modules. The install is fully reversible — factory modules come out intact, store them in a drawer, and reinstall them before selling or returning a lease. Laserlight commands a premium on used listings, and the OEM hardware stays OEM.
White matches the factory Laserlight DRL color temperature, so the car looks stock at a glance — the right pick when you want the OEM aesthetic. Yellow is the CSL-style signature, the detail that sets M4 CSL and CS models apart at shows and meets. Switching takes under two seconds from the driver's seat, so your configuration isn't locked in.
