Pics request | Individual reading lights for the rear seats, option 4M8

remmib · 12-20-2010, 01:39 PM

Just wondering if any has info or pics of this option, 4M8, individual reading lights for the rear seats.

£300, and even more here in Norway, for reading lights seems pretty expensive.

If they look and work like mine, definitely not worth the money IMO. The light is wimpy and they are not very prettty - the light assembly looks just like the front one.

The light falls more toward the center of the seat so you need to keep your material in the center. Mine is a 2011 F10 with the anthracite liner.

I am glad I didn't bother ordering those in my F10 520D, they look pretty lame. Mine is due for delivery Mid-January 2011.

That look like the standard reading lights.

I don't know if this option is available in US.

I think the individual lights are located towards the roof handle bar closer to the door.

They are adjustable in all directions and a little brighter (I think), that's the difference!

That costs £300?!?!?!? What a rip off!

I know the lights are near the rear doors on the F11, at least with panoramic sunroof, but I guess it's in the middle on the F10.

These are the only lights! They both get on when opening the door!
This is an F10, don't know how it is solved in a F11!
