To complete the set.......Late Dusk (using the same iPhone 4 camera)
DRL Only Mode
Image

Sidelight Only Mode - the lights are dimmed a little by the LCM Unit
Image

Automatic Dipped Headlight Mode (OEM HID).  I don't think the iPhone likes HIDs straight on!!

Is it not part 8 in this diagram or don't you have OEM HIDs?  It's just an H8/35W.

I know the non-HIDs have a BMW special bulb by the looks of it.

Non oem xenons here. Understand build in OEM is different and hence retro bright LED  a PITA

Installed today. Colour is so much better than the very old yellow - quite surprised that BM still put them out like this, even in the LCI.

Anyway, they do appear a bit dimmer than the yellow ones. Couldn't get photos as it was sunny when I opened the bonnet and hailing 1 minute after I closed it!

(Cheers to those for all the helpful advice/photos etc on the thread)
