I know you can't just delete a single "feature", since most are included as part of oprion packages, but DAMN if I wouldn't like to get rid of the headlight washers. I'm tired of cleaning washer fluid off the hood and fenders.


Hey... Has anyone tried just disconnecting the supply lines to them? Like so they TRY to function, but can't get any fluid? Hrmmm....

i thought they would only spray if your driving lights were on? Im pretty sure on mine that if my lights are off and i wash my windshield it dosent shoot outa the light area.

Just shut off your lights when you use the washers

+1 on the Comfort Seats, I would be miserable these days with my recovery if I could not really support my whole frame with my seats!!

I would never give up my adaptive bi-xenon headlights.. I love them. On the other hand I would love if I could trade my HUD for Individual back and side black windows. I was wondering between a 545i and 550i before I got the one I am driving now (550i) and the 545i had them. They are awesome
