Yes. This has nothing to do with the lightning package.
Lightning package is just:
vanity mirror lights,
door handle lights outside,
underneath the door lights when opening the door
interior lights in the door,
Possibility to change the colour from orange to white (classic/modern) for the interior lights

oh, its very different on my previous bmw cars, like my F30 now (2013) if you dont purchase lighting package, the car will look like a rental car lol. that's why im always buying bmw with angel eyes

thanks! good thing this is standard now on X4. also i noticed the lighting package is maybe LED is included on headlight instead of regular Xenon which i can live with that. LED angel eyes is more important to me

For the head lights, at least here in Europe, you have Xenon or LED.
This is not what is packaged here as "lightning pack". That is a different pack. Not sure how it is in the US.....

And as far as I know, latest models had always angel eyes, whether they were Xenon or now LED, Whether you had the lightning pack or not.

it's not standard in all countries. I had to get the executive package to get xenon or get the xenon option separately. Best to check the configurator on the bmw site.

Mmm, What are the standard lights then in the Netherlands? In Belgium it is Xenon on all X4 models, LED is optional.....

But I agree, you always have to check your local configurator or even better your dealer (as the configurator is not always correct neither)

In X4 here in US standard is Xenon with led halo. Optional LED headlight. On other cars like 3 series, standard halogen without halo and optional xenon with led halo.

Garage List
Lighting package in the US gives LED Headlights, LED front turn signals and Automatic high beams.

The interior lighting(i.e Ambient, door sill etc) is part of the premium package and some is even standard
