Does anyone know the difference between the 2?

If I'm mistaken, isn't Olsa the OEM supplier for lighting in the auto industry?

only asking because ECS tuning has both on the website and OLSA branded is much cheaper than the Genuine Mini ones.

Thanks for your help!

 

OLSA is the manufacturer for the Genuine MINI lights.

 

oh i see. mind me asking why there is a different in price between the OLSA parts UJ tail light and the Genuine Mini UJ tail lights? any different in quality or literally the same tail lights just selling under different brands?

 

I would imagine you are paying for the Genuine word.

 

would it be completely 100% safe to assume that OLSA parts brand is exactly the same as OEM.

 

I wouldn't be able to say 100% sure, ECS maybe able to say but if worried they have the Genuine version. I bought my union jack tail lights off ebay from Europe since ECS didn't have them at the time and I wanted the smoked version with the Audi style turn signal.

 

They are the same the OLSA make the part for MINI and then puts it in a genuine MINI box. You will not see the MINI logo as its ground off. We get a great price from OLSA.

 

warning lights? issues if installed on a LED car? flicking?

 

do you mean no logo on the box or on the actual tail lightS for the OLSA branded ones?

 

They grind off the MINI logo in the back of the plastic casting most of the time and the box will not be genuine MINI type box. For these ones they say MINI on the side and the lens and the logo is one the back. So they are not neutralized by the makers.

These are for LED factory MINIs. Will not work with non LED taillight cars unless coded which we do not carry coding software. US version Lights

 

So will they flicker on a LED Car?

 

No, LED cars have the built in system like canbus led bulbs.

 

Euro Version? I have a set of OEM Euro on order, if these are legit I’m in. According to my order your OEM Euro are back ordered until 8/28.

 

SOLD! purchasing a set from ECS today. also, do these cause error messages for mini's with LEDs already? need to be coded out?

 

Thanks Should not need coded if you have led factory.
