Evening all. Can someone clarify a couple of things for me please?
1) what size are the windscreen wipers on a 2010 e89. I've currently got some of the new style blades and they're a 21/20 however when I look online they say 22/20 or 21/20 if I want the old style blades.
2) should my halo rings be on all the time? I have my lights on the auto setting and the halo only come on as expected when the lights are on. However, I see similar 10 plates that have just the halos in normal daytime driving. I wondered if this was a conscious choice by switching the sidelights on, or is there some sort of setting that I can adjust so that they're on when the ignition is on.
Thanks in advance.

One of our keys has the halo side lights on all the time.
This must have been coded to this key and the lights are slightly brighter than if switched to side lights.
Keep meaning to look into doing the same for the other key.
So the options for this key is , side lights on all the time - bright, turn switch to side lights - on but slightly dimmer, and turn switch to main lights - side lights and main lights on.
Obviously there is auto lights too.

Putting the running light on/off is a option you can set using the OBC or idrive

Should I be able to some how select this on the stalk as I don't have idrive, or will it need someone with a coding device?
