Default 04 545i Daytime low beam delete?

I have a 2004 545i stock xenon head lights. The low beam/daytime light is on during the day. I just installed the 10w angel eye bulb upgrade from Trinity which I found here on the forum. They arrived quickly and look like a nice improvement over the stock. However, I would love to see them on during the day and do away with the low beam. Is it possible? Thanks in advance. Adam

Two ways:

Manual wiring for AEs as DRL and have flash to pass DRL coded out.

Upgrade to LM2 and have angel eyes coded as DRL.

Thank you for the input. If I understand correctly, the lights can be codes off? Then I would need to upgrade the light module, and program it for the DRL lights to be the angel eyes

Yes, that is correct. That is the OEM way if you will. However, that is much more costly since LM2 itself is around $400.
