So my coding for this is no longer illegal…

that should have been done so long ago... with all those people driving with their high-beams on blinding oncoming traffic... if they all had smart high-beams we wouldn't have to squint while driving... lol

Yes, just hasn't been legal in the US.

If you want anti-dazzle I'd suggest working with SaNGRia and he can remote code it for a lot less than what BMW would ever offer. I doubt BMW will even "retro" code our older BMW.

BimmerCode can't do it. Requires different software.

Does that mean we can legally remove 8S4 and 5AP?

I'm in Canada and have done the anti-dazzle and VLD re-coding on my '15 X5 35d LEDs (as in Europe) and it's awesome. I drove home last night in modest traffic from Toronto and not one person flashed me - the high beam mainly illuminates the roadway signs when traffic is around but it indeed works well. Such a great feature - glad it's legal in the US now. I actually don't know if it's legal in Canada or not but frankly don't care. No reason not to do it if you're in the US now. Enjoy!

How the hell do I PM you? LOL, I am probably overlooking the obvious, but after five minutes I give up!

I want on our recently purchased 2018 X5 M:

Anti-dazzle lights
Auto high-beam to default to on
Auto wipers to default to on

None of these seem possible with the Bimmercode app

Hey there, seems like you just joined therefore cant send private messages yet. I can do Anti- Dazzle and Auto High Beam always on but there is no such a thing to keep auto wipers on all time. hit me up bmwdiys@gmail

Awesome…thanks - sharing is what makes this place work . I just discovered the fuel range adjustment couple days back - not straightforward but posted for others in case they wish to try it out.
