US Spec F12 to Euro (amber) rear blinkers?

Hi Guys,

My US Spec F12 is due to arrive at my home in Denmark in a few days and as a local requirement I need have my rear blinkers in amber and not red. However, I'm not quite sure of the requirements of the conversion.

Would it be a simple bulb replacement (and in that case I guess I need some error code free ones)?

Or do I actually need to get a new housing and possibly some wiring harness (not sure if US and Euro use the same wires) and additionally do some coding?

Hope you guys can help in getting my baby ready for the road here!

The colour is produced by the fixed internals of the housing.
So its atleast 2 new taillights $$$

Would hope they are plug and play, but ive never tried the conversion

I always thought the LEDs inside produce the colour as my housing is red but the indicator flashes orange.

So yep new tail lights i would have thought!
