Any proof of the new M3 headlamps delivered on the 2021 MY?

[Neffers]

I was reading about the new headlamps on the 2021 M3, they seem like a great upgrade. Has anyone had delivery or proof that the most recent MY has the new headlights? If not, I wonder if they would retrofit?

My understanding is that the new headlamps are not for North America.

Bjorn just posted up a few videos of the 21 M3 from Fremont with new lights

He's probably referring to this post:

from Bjorn. Who lives in Norway and therefore has European headlights, which aren't legal in North America yet. The fact that the car was built in Freemont CA doesn't mean it is designed for US regulations. They ship them overseas.

The Y isn't being shipped to Europe so why would it have European headlights? As far as retrofitting, why would you want to retrofit European headlamps on a North American vehicle? Boredom?

@imola.zhp the video is comparing a brand new Model *3* vs an older one, not the Model *Y*.

typical US regulations limiting lighting innovation. Same thing with tail lights and turn signals. No fancy laser headlights for us peons in the US either.

Europe: laser beams and photon guns
US: tape a flashlight to your hood

You forgot: US: Totally cool if your 8 ft tall Raptor has million watt LEDs.

Yes, my comments were not in regards to the video but in regards to the topic of this thread...
"Any proof of the new M3 headlamps delivered on the 2021 MY?"

And the first post...
