I bought these lights but came with no instructions. After watching part 1 & 2 I am very confident on the procedure to follow and planning on attempting this when the sun shines in the UK. Great video and thank you.

Hello... just one question... I want to install ambient light on my car but I don't have ambient light at all from the factory... is it possible to code then via CAN box as you showed in your video... do you have to connect all the lights via CAN box or... thanks
Hi I came to install the lights and find that my idrive has 10 pins but connector to module appears to be 4 pin. When you powered up the lights do you see a red light inside the module and does that flash and then switch off or does it stay on all the time. Also I find that the first 4 wires in 10 pin and 4 pin are the same. Can i hook the 4 pin wire to this and plug the module in
