I've seen some e60'rs that have their Angel Eyes on all the time even in the morning. The only way I can get turn on the Angel Eyes is by turning the parking lights on. However the parking lights have to be turned on manually and if I turn these on I will usually forget to turn these off since I am so used to the auto headlights.

Is there a hidden menu for this somewhere? THX.

You can set them on or off on the LCI, via i-drive.

It would help if you had the year and model of your E60.

LCI easy, pre LCI not so easy.
