Need a solution
 

So I am a 130 in on buying lights bulbs for my del/ high beams. I got some angel eyes in and there blue all the bulbs I've bought are bright white, hella, sylvana, even some super blues from Amazon and it still looks really yellow the color. When driving in day times looks so weird the blue angels with yellow lamps lights or " white" lights. At night its beautiful with the hids. So should I just put hids there? Or figure out how to turn them off and only use if I need highbeams is that possible while still keeping my Angels ? Also if any one needs high beam light. Bulbs I have three brand new sets lol

Dealer can turn off daylight driving lights or somebody with the right software & hardware interface.

If you put your motor size and year in your sig, we could help you 10X easier. I did this on mine. Just gotta move one wire to a diffrent spot.... But I dont know what year and motor you have.

:iagree: or find a shop with GT1 computer.

same motor as you witch wire?

This will let you turn your angel eyes on and off by them selfs. I did it and love it.

no not that i have them already wired up. and they turn on and off with the car. i want to just eliminate the drl all together but have them work if i press high beam get me.

Like i said you need to go to dealer or mech shop with GT1 computer.... Those day time running lights ONLY can be turn off by dealer or some one with GT1 computer,no hardwire or nothing you can do...

O..... well Im sorry. I guess I was confused, ....well..... at least you got your sig filled out!

yup lol going to call a mech place and see whats what... any bulb ideas maybe? that will be blue blue not white/yellow?

There is no way, due to how they are designed to operate, to get the DRL's to appear white. The LKM uses a lower voltage AC signal to power the highbeam lights in the DRL mode. You can change bulbs all you like but it will not make any difference. You either learn to live with them or o pay to have somebody switch them off using a computer to access the LKM.

okay thanks moving on then i suppose on to the next mod lol:iagree:

I'm a bit late in the discussion, but in case that can help you, I've done that modification on my E46. I now use my aftermarket AE as DRL, and my OE DRL are now off, BUT can be used to flash.

This mod requires cutting and soldering wires though, and may not be exactly the same on a X5, but at least it may help you figuring how to do it.

Here is the thread I did on ...another fourum
