Outstanding choice. This will be a collector. Fortunately prices are still all over the place as the fan boys are still scared of *gasp* an M3 with a massive V8.

Today I had the stealership enable/disable some key fob features:
*Key press unlock once unlocks all doors
*5 mph all doors lock
*90 second courtesy lights
*disabled steering wheel easy entry
*key press unlock once adjusts seat and mirror position to its respective key
*increase park sensor tone
*increase park sensor sensitivity

I was going to do daytime running lights but meh, the highbeams dimmed looks stupid IMO. I then asked if the technician could disable the orange side marker lights but he didn’t have a setting for it such that the halos are the only lights on. He said it wasn’t possible. Too bad as it looks pretty nice, especially with updated/upgraded bulbs.

It is very possible with BMW Scanner 1.4 or NCS Expert. You can even code the halos as additional turn signals with either software...

I was just reading the thread with the owner in the Pacific Northwest who is looking for a setup to tweek his truck and you were referenced a few times. I wish I knew about this ten hours ago! I would have waited and ordered what I needed! Still will though, for future adjustments!

I believe that corner delete is standard European light operation. Those of us running the aftermarket Android radios have our halos programmed as DRL. (no light switch to position 1 or 2 needed) It will require an Android radio and the iBus adapter for that to work. We have tried for years to accomplish that by coding the factory LCM module with zero results. I guess BMW knew the factory halos were never going to be bright enough for DRL and never offered that option. But LED technology and development never stops... 15 years later, here we are...

Replaced all four rotors with new pads. Pads were in good shape but rotors were uber dished. Brake shimmy is now gone.
