BMW X1 and iX1 door-entry lights
BMW supplies its own door projectors in two sizes, 50 mm and 68 mm. A BMW dealer lists the 50 mm version only for a few recent models of the 1, 2, 3 and 4 Series and the Z4; the X1 is not among them. The same dealer names the X1 in its 68 mm listing, without generation codes. You don't need to work out which size you have: enter your car model and year when you order and we send the right size. The electric iX1 is not named separately. In every case the car must have door exit lights from the factory.

Door lights for BMW
What your car needs
The projector clicks into the existing courtesy lamp at the bottom of your door. If your car has no lamp there from the factory, there is no connector to plug into. Our set is plug & play and CAN-bus proof, so you will not get a warning on the dashboard.
Note: not every X1 version has a courtesy lamp from the factory, so look at the bottom of your door panel before you order.
BMW fits the courtesy lamp at the bottom of the door panel, usually with one standard connector. Check that your version has the lamp from the factory — not every version does. How to replace the lamp →
The option codes on this page are the manufacturer's rules for its own original projector.
2 or 4 lights?
Set of 2 = front doors, set of 4 = all four.
Frequently asked questions
Is the X1 on the 50 mm list?
No. The BMW dealer lists the 50 mm version for a few recent models of the 1, 2, 3 and 4 Series and the Z4. The X1 only appears in its 68 mm listing, without generation codes. You don't need to work out which size you have: enter your car model and year when you order and we send the right size.
Does every X1 have door exit lights?
No. The BMW dealer writes that fitting is only possible in cars that have door exit lights as standard, and that on some cars the interior light package (SA 564) is mandatory. So check the bottom of your door panel first.
I drive an iX1 or the newest X1 (U11). What should I check?
The dealer names the X1 without generation codes and does not name the iX1 at all, so the list cannot confirm the fit. Open a door after dark and see whether a lamp in the door panel lights the ground. If it does, we send the right size based on your model and year; if in doubt, you can always send us a photo of that lamp through the contact page.
