The DRLs on a 545 are the passing lights, NOT the angel eyes, I know as I just had my DRLs turned on and I was hoping my AIB 3.0s would light up........but NO! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

If you turn once to the right on the knob that controls headlights, it turns on the rings as well as the light ( not the xenon one, but the one next to it. the smaller one) so i just wanted to turn that off, so that the rings just are on, not the headlight. Is that possible? I think it was my mistake for calling it daytime running lights initially, because thats not what they are, correct?

IMHO you walk a narrow line when you let "looks" trump potential safety.
