i did not mess with the headlights of E53, as that car had to be back to the US and the Customs and border would not let the car back in with clear corners and no yellow in the front quaters of the car...


once i get the XP machine fixed (waiting on new hard drive, and a set of XP Pro disks, as my back up turned to be Vista), i will try to see if the side turn signal markers can be programmed to be lit at all the times, thus, satisfying the law man!!!

Yeah we have the same laws up here in Canada as well... i actually don't mind the amber when i am running parking lights... but i think i also turn on the tail lights when i flip the switch as well, correct?
