Would anyone know if the 2019 RT has the wiring inplace to add the fog lights and switch to. plug and play sort of thing.
Also can i fit non oem light using a relay and switch to run extra lights on the RT. if so where is the best place to pick up the 12V switch live for the relay.

Re: fog lights
Yes to both!
I prefer the OEM lights they are almost plug and play! the wiring is there and you have to buy the lights, loom and switch but then you also need it to be plugged in by BMW to activate the lights I have just replaced my lights and needed half the loom too and the cost was £320 you would need the switch and it activating too
You can also get a Hexcan and wire in the lights through one of those and use any lights you like and not have to tap in to any other wiring and you can do all sorts of fancy things with the lights too plus you would have 3 spare connectors for other accessories

Re: fog lights
I went the denali D2 spots and a Cansmart. I never use my aux lights (they are aux lights by the way, not fog lights). You can now have the aux lights illuminated with your daylight running lights. If they were actually fog lights, you would not be able to have them on unless your dipped headlight was on.
The BMW UK configurator is still calling them fog lights, but the Europe Config calls them aux lights as do the parts lists![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif)
