    Every once in a while, I do headlight upgrades for people with bi-xenons and new lenses that come with the silver reflectors, so I sometimes have some amber ones that I sell to a guy in Croatia. There is no way to buy them separately without removing them from headlights. Also, you say you have a 528i, but those had pre-facelift headlights. I'm assuming you're updating to the facelift, correct? If so, you should be looking for 525/530/540 headlight reflectors, not 528i.

    My car is 528i M52TU with twin vanos, just like M54 B30 but the throttle body still using cable, not drive-by-wire as M54 B30.
    But yes, you're right, I've updated the headlight using the facelift one taken from 530 M54.
    If someday you have the amber reflectors, kindly sell it to me

    Your car is drive by wire with a cable failsafe as seen here.



    I assumed that the Indonesian market also had full-amber CELIS in the rear?

    Correct, Indonesian market had full amber CELIS in the rear as standard, but some owners change to the red & clear CELIS.
    Does US market has full amber CELIS in the rear? I like the US CELIS taillight because it had the 4 small round LED in on the right and let side

    LOL! Can't wait for Grand Tour season 2.

    Seriously though, punky29 is right. m52tu has an electric TB controlled by a cable. The electronic pedal, which doesn't require a cable, wasn't added until the m54. That's exactly why I sold my Sprint Booster (electronic pedal tuner) when I switched from a 525iT to a 2000 528iT.
