Are there any After market i8 door projectors?

RichTimpa · 11-15-2018, 01:00 PM

Does anyone know of any door light projectors for the BMW I8? I've seen them on some of the other BMWs and have one on my X5 and they're really cool.

On the ground and in the footwell. My '19 Roadster has them. Maybe the 19 coupe does as well...

19 Coupe doesn’t but the Roadster does for some reason. You may be able to retrofit?

They work great. Will stream 4K Netflix videos into the footwell when requested via iDrive!

My 2015 coupe also had a lamp that project at the spot on the floor. The only difference is the 2019 roadster has a lens that project very techy I8 on the ground. I’d rather just have the spot.

Honestly its not about what it projects but the aesthetic and the M logo is much nicer. So why not! Alternative is a piece of black tape...

I got a factory to do it with i8 logos but there is no way / no place to attached these lights where it can project.

I got a factory to do it for me ..still have 5 sets left.

Elmar · 05-26-2019, 11:43 AM

nice

, but I think that's a set you have to stick outside the door panel.
Would you post a picture of the mounting position?
And where will the logo be projected with the doors closed?
