speaking of this LED lights - has anyone tried to modify the coding line in the facelifted LCM coding to accomodate the LED lights?

The facelifted units have the Brake Distribution Force (BDF) signal that makes the lights flicker (separate from the Cold Monitoring flicker) and I was wondering, if activating that line in the programming code would eliminate the flickering...

just a theory, that i can not test...

I was going to test this line out when I got coded, my local contact who is also on this board has 2 kids though and just got his dvds and cable a few weeks back so I don't believe he is ready yet, he lives 10 mins away from me.

I was going to visit Slick in Brooklyn but he hasn't been on much lately and I just need his address so I can get an overview of how far he is from me (I think about an hour)

I had done a lot of old fashion way by adding a pair of capacitors ...No more flickering or erro ..

T, if I am successful in tracking down a set of these LED tails....I'll give it a whirl if no one else does before then!

I saw clear tails on an X5 yesterday. I threw up inside my car. I tried to throw up out the window, but it was closed. Now sitting here thinking of RICE tails again, I want to throw up, window is already open.
