Tom, does your company sell depo projector headlights with a silver insert instead of black or chrome?
Al.

Not really sure, there is a rather large thread on e90Post filled with problems on the Depo retrofits, I'd simply stick with OEM projectors if possible.

BMW recommends a FRM3 on the LCI 3-series upgrade as well - it's simply not required when using an autologic, the vehicles are nearly identical in lighting.
FRM2 coding is what we recommend as "soft" coding - this can be overwritten if the FRM is programmed at the dealership (not common). FRM3 module + coding (the one BMW is recommending) is permanent and will not be overwritten from dealer visits.
Not all dealer visits result in FRM programming, I wouldn't worry about it if keeping the FRM2 module.
