I'm interested too in this, i have an e90 from 10/2006 , and my FRM module doesn't have welcome_light , i tried some coding around to make some light coming on with the interior lights when i unlock the car but doesn't work. Now I'm interested in changing my FRM with FRM2 module. Can someone tel me what do i have to do after i change the module? What to code or what to do? What is the welcome light value that must be add and where?

Thank you.

Those of you who don't want the headlamp washers spraying water all over your hood:

Try this:

KBM Module

SCHEINW_REINIGUNGS_AUTOM (Headlamp Cleaning)
active or nicht_aktiv


Seems to to indicate turning the headlamp washers on and off. I havn't tried it - I will keep mine on until spring.

Any options with that to increase or decrease the time when the washers spray?

no it's not possible dude ,, NCS doesn't do programing .. and you can'ts retrofit only the taillight ,, if u r interested in taillights only ,, just go for Bruce cable ..it works perfectly ..

to retrofit LCI lights ,, you need LM2 ( loght module 2 ) - front headlights - taillights - retrofit cable kit , programing
