Any idea on the total cost ?
Did you have to replace the LCM ?

Everything is working just perfect. The LCM part number is 61 35 9 179 186
I just followed the instructions in the pdf retrofit kit from halogen to xenon adaptive and then from xenon to LCI adaptive. Everything is listed in there step by step

Themi, congrats on the mod.
Couple of questions:
1. Most of us who did this mod used the LM2 part no. 9 154 944 - I had tried the part no. you used and it never worked - what did you do differently in this case and is there any difference ?
2. E60's before 09/2005 have a steering wheel angle sensor that isn't compatible with the functionality of the LCI cornering lights - I would be very interested how you got around this problem ?*
*Note: I'm referring to the cornering lights (the inner lights that light momentarily under 30km/h with large steering movements, and while parking etc.) NOT the adaptive lighting function !
