Guy when your wife appeared that gave me CHILLS my girl was like that after 20 years she is cool it will be alright . Love the video just got my 2017 X5 x35i and I can’t wait to do the mirrors , windows and ambient light saved your video thanks a lot .

I bought a veepeak a week ago and did a bunch of coding this weekend, with the help of your few videos on it. Ambient lighting, enabling features in idrive/gauge cluster, soft close trunk (freaking GAME CHANGER this one), Rolls Royce startup animation and "gong" sound (we'll be accustomed to it for when we actually drive RR like Rick Ross), etc... LOVE IT MAN! Thanks for putting together these videos. I have done my rear air bags, spark plugs, and now this coding stuffs, thanks to you! You are a gentleman and a scholar mr eddie!

How can I code flashing brake force display on an F85 X5M? So the rear lights flash when you brake hard?

Hello! I have 2014 F15 M impoetd from US without Ambient lights. I'm in process of getting one (OEM) is it possible to add in the car software as it doesn't show neither in I-Drive.

Hi Eddy thank you for your differents posts. I have a trouble with my x5 f15, since i bought it I have a keys mssing on the board when my motor turns and a passanger goes down close the door then the system said keys missing. Does any one has this issue? and how to resolve it? I try with bmw maintenance but they are so bad... the problem still there? thank you for your helps.

I have a 2016 X6 35i Msport. Will this work with my interior lighting ? I want the green and some others.

Hi Eddie. I got x5m just yesterday. I can't figure out how to turn the fog lights on. The green light on the dash comes on but the small round lights underneath the main lights dont come on at all. Any ideas?
