BMW FLA (High beam asist) retrofit

Why did I do this? In city driving, I hardly use my highbeam. In backroads country driving in winter, it becomes a chore to constantly turn on/off the highbeam

So I swapped mirrors yesterday and ran the two extra wires for CAN L and CAN H. I bridged the wires coming from the FZD (roof control module), by release the two pins in the connector. (Wire colours are Green - Pin 1 and Orange/Green - Pin 11). and moving them to a separate wiring harness which splits to the mirror and also the FZD.

I didn't get a chance to do the coding yet, but you need to add $5AC to your FA (vehicle order) and code
CIC, - There is an option to enable or disable high beam assist
FRM - Turn off/on HBA using signal from FLA
FLA - The camera in the mirror
KOMBI - So you can get the A for automatic high beams

Sorry no pics, I also did the rear brakes on our Countryman S, so I was tired
