Default BMW e60 Pre-LCI Angel Eyes Orion v2

I recently installed the Orion v2 and had my headlights blacked out, and all I can say is they are a must have. The look of the angel eyes and blacked out headlights entirely changes the look of your car. For anyone out there thinking about it, jump on it. Simon (nomis_nehc) installed mine and I highly recommend him for the job. I cannot think of anyone that is more experienced or more qualified than he is.

Thank you sir! It was a pleasure to start your modding journey with me! Looking forward to even more pics after you do a headlight restore!

Simon,
have you ever dimmed AE using nettodat coding?
I need to dimm my Orions as they are too bright for the night driving and I have problems with the police because of that.
I have tried to change the alue for voltage in Nettodat.trc using NCS Dummy, but it didn't allow me to enter the HEX value for 6V.
So, if you have experience with this, I would appreciate any idea on how to solve this.

Nobody ever wants the Orions dimmed, even with the v4s, so this is not a request I have dealt with.

Having said that, there was a discussion about this long ago, unfortunately for you, I recall it is only relevant to cars that has LM2.

Your best bet is to purchase the white control box that has the dimming feature (dims to 70%) or purchase parts to build a potentiometer to self adjust.

Thanks mate! I will contact Umnitza regarding those boxes. Speaking of which, if you have spares I'd rather buy them from you then from Umnitza.

I think I do, I will have to check my office. They aren't cheap though, don't ask me why. It's what I get from Umnitza too.

OMG, very beautiful. But it cost a bit expensive. Something around 1200 or 1400€ if you take the 2008 LCI style on a pre-LCI.
