Guys,

the Singapore International Motorshow is on from Nov 10th for 19 days at SICEC. They will be taking up 25,000 sqm over 3 floors.

Maybe we can arrange a group visit, preferably on those "trade days" so we can have more room and less people?
do they have trade days in motor show?
if i am in town, never fail to go. i am on for whatever group visit!

Hey, you and Bugs have been there and done that. LMK and myself are just about to achieve the optimum round abdominal muscle that the two of you have. Must gather more tips from the two of you.

I saw his video after our GTG in bedok. Pics is very clear and honestly I was quite impressed. This type of thing better let him meddle to perfection first so that next time when we want to install, there is a standard to follow, right Yankee??

Richard,

Maybe one of these day, I drop by to see how's yours being install.

Tcc, you are right. Once I have all the items up including the Idrive interface, I would show it to you all and let you decide what to put in and the lesson I learned.

It could do 6.2secs for sure. Once you get the Kleemann kits, it probably could go under 5sec?

I wonder if anyone else has noticed this in the E60 before.

When I leave the headlight switch in "auto" position and turn the ignition off, the xenon lights will be switched off but the marker lights (angel eyes) will remain active until the driver's door is opened. I'm pleasantly surprised at this little feature.

No Zag, not the one sided park lights.

At the end of a journey, you switch off the igintion, right? Its just that I forgot to turn the light switch to "off" position from "auto" and I saw from the reflection on my main door, the 4 angel eyes were still left on. They automatically went off the moment I opened my door.

I wound down the window and tested again; this time standing outside the car when I turned the ignition off and the angels remained on. Opened the cr door and they went off again; cool....

BTW, same with the M6.
