Amber corner lights

I am about to import my US e92 into Europe and I've got a question regarding the amber corner lights, which are always lit on the US models. If I remember correctly those lights are not lit on the Euro models and only used for turn signals, or no? What lights need to come on when the light selector switch is in the park position? Do any of the amber lights need to light up, or just the headlights as far as the front?

I had recently both of the amber corner lights coded to be off, except when the turn signal is used. Will my car pass an European (Spain) inspection like that?

if you were in Germany, even if you had your corner lights lit full time you would still pass TUV. You are required to have at least your angel lights lit

Isn't that how it is when you code the corner lights to off? No need to wire anything.

You have to get the coding software. Do a search on this... You will need Ediabas, INPA and ncs expert with a good coding cable... Do not skimp on the cable
