Code eyebrow lights as DRLs???

Does anyone know if it's possible to code the eyebrow lights as DRLs and have the angel eyes disabled?

So it looks like an Audi?

It is possible if eyebrows have lights. Coding depends on which headlamps you have.

I've got the LED reflector headlights...the ones that move when you turn the wheel.

Would it be possible for you to list all LCI lighting coding in my F3X LCI thread or PM me. I can make a donation...

Thanks. Can the eyebrow lights be made brighter? If not, then I'll probably pass on this idea.

Not via coding, you need to open the headlights and change the whatever making light in there.

You're kidding, right? Do you honestly think I'd want to do that?
I asked about doing it via coding, not by cracking open the damn thing.

Chill, you did not say "by coding". I haven't been here long, but I already know that Mwahab is one of the gurus of coding and very helpful. No reason to be rude. He gave you your answer, if you don't like it, that's your problem.

I am not kidding, and no you won't crack ' The damn thing' there are more advanced tools nowadays to open your headlights and modify them, there are billions invested in these companies i doubt you know anything about.

I am really sorry for hurting your feelings, but this is my answer. Have fun!
