how do I get the lights to do this while driving...

see the pic below... there are two angel eyes on each side... but I can only replicate this upon unlocking the car.... once I turn the ignition on the DRL's come one and ruin the cool look... is there any way to do this so I can drive (during the day) with the lights the way they are in this pictures (and have my fogs on as well)

Turn your lights on low, and then push the fog light button.

turning to the left activates the auto light sensitive lights. turning to the right once activates the angels like you see above. turning it again to the right will turn your headlamps on.

EDIT: since u have a newer car, you can do this by disabling the DRL's through the stalk or the nav-screen if you have one. look in your manual. sigh..had to do that. you have over 300 posts guy

Where the hell is the "break"? When I put my foot on the brake, nothing happens when I push the starty button dohicky. However, when I press in the clutch, it fires right up!

You guys don't have CA? I just clap twice and the car starts itself. Clap once and it stops. Once, a date slapped my face and the car shut off by itself.

Actually, even reading the manual isn't 100% clear on how to get the Angel Eyes to turn on. Sadly, you can't get E90's Angel Eyes to work as DRLs with the switch in Auto mode (as far as I know) without spending some cash.

1.) Turn off DRLs in the settings.
2.) Turn headlight switch to "running lights" and you get Angel Eyes

If I could turn off the DRLs and get Angel Eyes with the switch in "Auto" (and not have to pay a few hundred $$$ for it), I'd do it.

Why would you want to drive with fog lamps on? Is there permanent fog where you live? Do you drive with your rear fogs on as well? :
