Comfort Light Module

[T2FFN]

Nice work, can you clarify the DRL angel eye problem. If you've linked your AE to your sidelights, and leave your lights on Auto, you can't have them on as DRL?

If you have the sidelights / AE set to come on when unlocking, do they then turn off when you start the engine?

Many thanks, this sounds great, many people have wanted AE on when unlocking

What sort of .ae are we talking here? Like ccfl kit?

You kno to get those to come on when you unlock is easily achievable with about £5 worth of bits and will only take an hour or so

I can post up a how to if you wish,

Yeah, CCFLs. Please, that would be great. I think many have looked at it, the thought was to run a wire from the interior light or similar on a relay etc or is it much easier?

I will post up a diy

When I'm on my laptop

Yea a wire from the footwell lights and you could use a relay or simply two diodes

I can post up the theory but can not post pics of the job as I don't have ae on my z4

This all comes from e46

The module does not allow the little bulb to be used as DRL: only choice between foglights, big lights (not high beam), tail lights or the front left bulb of the indicators (like the US versions). So I might consider connecting them to those bulbs: are those the "side lights" you meant? If I connect the angels to those,then I can have them on all the time!

If not, then yes they turn off when putting the engine on and I do not have auto-lights... But in principle there is a good workaround!

[Bad_Pritt]

As for the rest, the module does much more than that: comfort indicators, right or left fog lights on when turning, and all lights fully customiseable...

I just made a short movie to show what the final result looks like:

Thank you for this topic. Good write up and the video was a nice bonus !

[LukeMace]

This looks like a great mod! I have done a bit of research today on this but can't find how you actually change the settings? How do you program it? Any chance of a a few pics or a short video of it?
Thanks!

I thought it was set using the stalk next to the wheel, like cycling through mpg, range etc, but that could be wrong

pretty easy with the indicator stalk, instructions are pretty clear

That's great. Thanks. My wife has asked what I would like for Christmas and this is going to be on the list!
Was looking at the combined one with ABC module (more details about car etc) but decided the lights module is probably all I would realistically use! Ooh and the gaptec!

[Bad_Pritt]

I also have the gaptec... nice bit of kit too!
One minor flaw: the comfort light module also allows you to have the windows go up and down with a single touch, but this does not work properly if you also have the gaptec module (same command on the key remote). So I turned off that option on the comfort light module and everything works perfect now! When I open the car, she greets me with her angel eyes, fogs and tail lights Same as when I close the car. You also have a "follow me home" thingy when you turn off the car and the headlights

[LukeMace]

On the list of 'Buy Soon!!' Will get along with gaptech
