You can disable the DRLs through the turn signal stalk (scroll through the settings for the key icon with a checkmark, select using the button on the end of the stalk, scroll for the headlight icon with the sun like symbol next to it and select the off setting). As a side note, the E82 Euro setup does not use an H7 bulb. The inner bulb you see through the glass is the H8 for the rings.
Aah thanks for that! Makes sense now!

I was wondering what that bulb in the inner projector was! cos it looked like an H7 to me.

So do I not need to worry if I don't have DRL's currently on my car? I have a EURO build.

Thanks!
