Third Brake light Z4 = Z4M ?
Need to order a brake light. I see different listings/prices. Z4 prices are less, are the lenses different ?

Z4M come stock with clear lenses. Regular Z4 have red lenses. I like the red lenses better to match the all red taillight and it's cheaper.

OK, mine has red lense, must have been switched. I found prices from $ 65-$130. I like the red with my Imola better anyway. Will order today, thanks for the clarification.

So that is the difference, coupe = red/ roadster = clear, was this how it went on the Z4 non M also. I did not order mine yet, I've got a missing part on vert top, going to go to Stealership to inquire. ( 1 of my 4 posts on the top, that make contact with the front edge, I just found to be missing/plastic piece broken ) So I'm going to get their "best price" on the third brake light. As I was in getting cowl hardware, very experienced parts desk guy told me that he can do better on pricing if I give him my price from competitor. He actually knocked $ 60 off cowl price after quoting me initially. Third brake light pricing is really all over the place online.
Here's what I don't understand...the Z4 pricing is way below the Z4M pricing. Are these lights different ?

As far as I'm aware, all Z4M Roadsters have clear third brake lights. All Z4 Coupes (including M) have red third brake lights.
I've seen non-M Z4's with both red and clear, but I'm unsure if this was tied to model year, LCI, or just the owner's swapping them when they cracked.

Thanks for clearing this up. I like the red matching my Imola Red car...upon further inspection it appears previous owner used some sort of glue/sealant around the edges of light, so it's going to take some careful scapeing away of material before install. Now just need to decide on red/clear. Stealership quoted me $ 76.26 for the clear, but $ 130 for the red...figures I like the red better
