Retiring from the community! Last chance for mods!
Hi guys. I wanted to make a public announcement about stepping away from the community since in Socal I have been the long-time go to guy for headlights and other electrical mods.
Long story short, I have an opportunity oversea that I am really excited about, and currently am anticipating my big move by the end of February.
So what that means for the community is that if you have ever thought about doing headlight mods, or other services that I offer, now is the time to try to schedule with me. Although I anticipate my move to be in February, it is most probable that I would not be doing any work after the first week of February so I can deal with the details of the move.
With that said, here's a recap of the things I do:
Headlight mods: pre-LCI and LCI. Orion v2/v4 install, custom painting/black outs, clear lenses swap and install, amber removal/Euro sticker, white eyebrow conversion -- for pre AND LCI (I currently am the only person in the states that has found a way to reuse the OEM board with the white LEDs, method developed three months ago), projector retrofits, and lastly, the illuminated fin project for LCIs -- check in sig.
Coding: this one is self explanatory, enabling features and options that are disabled such as real time traffic, digital speedo, and many other custom parameters that is not published on the forum.
Enabling angel eyes as welcome lights and DRL for pre-LCI people that are on LM1. I have developed my own method to this as well (different than what's in the thread on this board) and does not require any wiring to the front to the headlights at all.
LCI tails retrofit. I can retrofit LCI tails for people with LM1 without Bruce's cables using BMW's wiring harness, all functions work properly.
LCI tails special brake effects. Again, no need for v6.1 cables. Been doing this mod for over 2 and a half years now.
Other auxiliary installs such as back up/front camera (Modmynav is my recommendation), HID AE, HID reverse (hugely recommends this) are offered as well.
I'll be posting up some pictures of recent work, and people I have done work for, please feel free to post as well!
If I forget "stuff", I will be sure to add to this thread!
Happy New Year everyone!
