No. I replaced one of my bags in my 3rd row optioned E70. It's all done outside the car. There's no need to do anything inside the car at all.

No, it's not possible.

MHUD = 1 programmable button
non-MHUD = 2 programmable buttons

It's just deposits from the exhaust gases.

Mine had this badly when I bought it (used). I had to use an oven cleaner to get it all off, and now I keep it clean when I wash.

I didn't adjust the lights. Just lowered the rear. But yeah, it's just a different program. You use the same cable as coding.
