Figured out why my disc changer wasn’t playing. The previous owner had a iPod adapter and it required the plug port for the changer. Now I need to find a new changer that works.
Found the Bluetooth code for the phone and it works! Found the module for headrest TVs, but two owners previous removed them. Sent from my iPhone using Xoutpost.com

I have angel eyes connected so they come on when the ignition key is on and a second trigger so the also come on when the interior lights come on when I unlock or open a door

Is that a programming option for the interior lights/AE? Mine are programmed as DRL's along with my fogs via the IBUS app. Didn't see an option for the interior lights on AE's on.

No, it is not by programming it is by direct connections and a relay. I don't have Depo headlights. I modified the OE lights. I was suggesting an option that OP might want to consider if Depo lights can be wired that way.

What did you do to / for your E53 today??

I love it. Getting greeted with the AE. I wanted a key on hot to run mine but couldn't find. I discovered that the O2 heaters use always on hot and PWM on the ground so it puts the AE on any time the engine is on. No extra wiring or relay needed. I had recently replaced my downstream O2 so I actually used the wiring from the old ones including the sheath so it basically looks factory. (And exact match). I "teed" into the hot from Bank one o2 upstream sensor. I stripped 1cm of wire from the positive side of the heater and soldered on the tee connection. I ended up having to re-do that when my 3rd party (don't do it) upstream O2 failed within a year. Fun little quirk: the O2 heaters stay powered for a minute or so after shut down so the AE stay lit after I leave my car for a bit. I'm always in my car when i start it so I'm not sure if they come on at key on or when the engine starts. I have '01 so when I put in the depo lights it was quite an appearance update. The actual lenses/relfector aren't as good so the beam pattern is not perfect like it used to be. Of course some of the smooth beam pattern was from the diffusion going through the cloudy lenses!

Aftermarket AEs I have have option for two triggers. I have one connected to fuse box to a slot that is hot only when the key is on. The other is connected to fuse that is hot when doors are unlocked or opened. Both have inline fuses and relays.

Did you wire trigger #1 to the ignition in the E-box? Did you wire trigger #2 to the footwell lights?
