Re: iSO 7 update

Thought I would update the iPad Sat evening, so dutifully set about backing everything up, deleted some stuff to make room for the update and downloaded it.  Update started...

The error free part is so that the LCM doesn't see the LED's as a blown lamp, but if it doesn't see a high enough resistance it will cause the flash rate to be too fast.

Re: Xenon headlights retrofit advice please ??

I too would try it myself even if you have to drop the bumper off (don't know about E70's)
