Very nice. Love the 'terry cloth drip pan.' Wish they made Union Jack tail lights for Gen 1 cars, oh well...

Are these from a different manufacturer? Any idea how they compare?

Can you kindly post pictures with the car fully off? Also, did you consider these?

Hello,

Its most likely the same people, but since they dont have much info its hard to say. We are direct with some of the largest aftermarket headlight and taillight distributors in the world and many re-seller buy off of us.

Also we are here in the USA.

You want pics of the RED lens version or the Clear lens version?

RED lens version turned off:

The US factory F54 UJ ones are not out completely and will require some re pinning and possible coding.

Aftermarket ones, we will let you know as soon as they launch. Nothing right now.


**UPDATE here are the F54 Clubman Union Jacks:

Thanks for your response. I'm looking for pics of the clear ones (LCI). It would be good to see off as well as braking/signaling. Also, how does the bottom portion (straight line below Union Jack) work? Turns red too?

Finally, do they throw off codes?

No codes, see pics above, we have them with the turns, brakes.. etc On my R58 with turn signal and parking light UJ.

On 2007-10' cars its a back up light. On 2011+ Cars its a rear fog/and additional brake light.

I will have to get one of the brakes.

Thanks. I just realized they are probably illegal in California since they are not red?

They come with little red reflectors. Which you can install where they need to be. MINI had the same issues back in 2002-2004 on the factory MINI Genuine euro clear taillights. They included little red reflectors to mount on the bumper.

Got it. I'll do some research. But just to be clear, when the car is on the lights are red anyway right? Only when the car is off the look fully grey?

The red reflectors are installed on the exterior portion of the tail lights? Any pics?

Yep, lights are on/ parking lights are on. When you have them off only the clear versions are dark and need the reflectors. Check your state code, back in the day they just stuck them on the bumper.

But just to be clear, if I turn the car on (neutral) will they glow red? Or only if I press the brake pedal?

CA mandates lights need to be seen form 1000ft and be red. So if the car is at the traffic light waiting for the signal to change, will they glow red?

When you have the parking lights on the glow red, or if you have your headlights on all the time (without day time running lights) they will glow red.

When sitting at a signal and the foot on the brake they glow brighter red.

Nice. Are you in CA? If so, may I ask why you went with the reds? Looks or legality?

I asked at a CHP office...they were beyond confused about how to answer if the clear ones are legal. My sense is that if I have the headlights on all the time, I should be fine.

I meant ECS. I guess I'm too obsessed with the planned RPM Stage tune and can't get ECU out of my mind.
