If you have new LCM, then it is definitely the easiest way to get it programmed. Did you modify all the wirings as BMW's retrofitting-quide says? I haven't changed the LCM so I can't help more, sorry =/
In my setup eyebrows stay on 'cos they stayed on with pre-LCI also. Both have same type of leds. Cars sold to Finland have eyebrows always on with front lights. As well as angel eyes. Also automatic front lights are as stantard.
Angel eyes stay on with 35W bulbs because my LCM thinks nothing has changed. Only thing my setup lacks, is the flash of high beams when you pull the knob towards yourself. Otherwise, no problems. That would be easy solvable, but haven't bothered because it's really not a problem.

Where do I get uncoded adaption modules? I have the head lights, tail lights, retrofit cables and the stock LCM. Do I still need the uncoded adaption modules? Does anyone know where I can get them?

Have you tried a BMW dealer? Any BMW dealer can get them.

To the OP: would you mind posting the steps of your work?

Now at least we know it is do-able.

Thanks.

How did you get adaptive to work without coding? I managed to get all else working with some modifications - but the auto-leveling on start up looks like the eyes of that crazy guy who works in Peter's office from Family Guy.
