So would having the AEs at 100% brightness with low beams on shorten the life of LEDs or cause other issues?

It would depend on if you are changing driving habits.

Angel eyes are at 100% as DRL's.

It gives the vehicle a washed out look at night as well as provides increased glare for others without improving visibility for driver.

Almaretto I'll be trying this out tomorrow on an '18 but am I just looking for FLE Module instead of TMS Module?
Do you think the rest will be the same..?

3005 Leuchtmittelmatrix 1, F8
Standlicht Modus 2
change 4th from last value ?

TIA!

No. Architecture is different in FLE. Though, general premise still applies (ie comparing DRL to low beam setting).

Does anyone know how to code these lights to act as blinkers as well?

Change the value circled in red from 2E (46%) to 64 (100%).

There are two TMS modules and each one controls one side of the lights. Make sure you code both TMS modules.

If u want max halo when unlocking car do the same for
Welcome Light 1 (both tms module)
Where is the other TMS module? I'm gonna give this a try. Thanks!

i'd liked to have my daytime driving lights about as dim as possible. Then code the parking lamp on halos to be 100% bright. bimmercode allowed me to change the parking and low beam halos. Bit bimmercode didn't change anything with DRL brightness.

Has anyone come up with a retrofit for the dummy projector next to the headlights projector?
Would it be possible to retrofit a LED Fog light or something like that?
