They come stock in the manual E46 cars. So they have been around for a while...

Yea it's an OEM part, so been around since the car has :)


I placed an order from PartsGeek. Never heard of them... we'll see how it goes.

Goodluck! Let me know how it goes with PartsGeek. I might do this in the summer.

Coding question: Is it possible to code our tail lamps to be on at all time? i.e. day time running rear lights? I searched for a bit but could not find anything. If it is possible, what is the NCS Expert keyword that I am looking for? Thanks.

I guess I just never did notice them before being mounted on the radiator.

Yes. You need an LCM that's version 4 or higher.

The option is:

FL_DRL_MIT_RL -> aktiv

I use it myself, and love this feature.

This option and triple blink are both dependant on LCM version 4.0 or higher? Damn, really makes me want to get an LCM with 4.0

Might as well. :)

I had to remove my black cube trim recently, so I could remove the head unit. I managed to crack the plastic bit that one of the metal post slides in to (well, it's the one around the head unit, so I guess it's the only post for that piece). I ended up crazy gluing it back together, and it would hold the post again. However, I had to remove the trim again, and this time, the post stuck in the hole, and I broke the backing off entirely.

Is there any sort of permanent fix, besides replacing the cube trim entirely? OR COURSE, this was the only piece of trim that didn't have a scratch or a gouge on it, so I'm not super upset...

Looking at this zhp and seller says it has the premium package (it's a different zhp from the one on the off-topic page). Is it true? unable to tell from the build sheet

last 7 of VIN are KM06798
