Yes, it's $40 to 50...

I don't see why they can't do it on the saturday, simply because all they have to do it plug it in and do it... takes maybe 15 to 20 min max...

Don't really think there are any other shops that does it. You need one that has the BMW diagnostic tool to get this to work...

Oh, if your dealer thought your DRL is not working, they may reprogram it to original...

Mine got "cancelled" awhile back and I never managed to go back.

Once you see Soni's car, you may want to get a E92!

Back to the topic, no, I do not think there are any other place that does it.

You may want to try contacting Bimmersport, Europa, and Chuck's Auto and see if they can do it. These are the 3 places I know specialized in BMW and would probably invest in a BMW specific diagnostic tool...

I would throw in RMP as well, but I do not think they have the equipment.

Why exactly do people disable DRL's? So they can use their angel eyes only as substitute DRL's?
