Xenons and Cornering Lights ON at same time
On the pre-LCI E90 is there a way to illuminate the projector xenons AND cornering lamps while driving? Or can the car be coded to do this?

Pre-LCI E90 doesn't have cornering lights. You're talking about the halogen lights next to the grille right?

Those are your high beams. I dont think you want to be driving around with your high beams on all the time (and if you do I hope you're never behind me....).
I was messing around with coding trying to get bi-xenon flash to pass and I THINK I was able to make the high beam use the halogen all the time instead of bi-xenon when you push the turn signal stalk forward. If you have a coding cable, mess around with the wert values for PWM_ANST_FL_BIXENON in FRM and see what you get. I forgot what combo made the high beam always use the halogen.

I wanted to make the xenon act as high beam even when the headlights WEREN'T on (ie for flash to pass).
But in messing around with coding, I found out it was possible to make it do it the other way (always halogen) instead of always xenon.

DRL is the high beam at reduced power on pre-LCI E90. I think what you want to do would require custom wiring with resistors.
