How to "turn on" eyebrows

gr997s · 02-02-2012, 12:55 PM

Just bought a new 2012 128 convt and did not get the option for the upgraded headlights. Without that option the eyebrows don't light up. Are the Led's still there? Anyway to get the dealer to turn then on? Many thanks...GR

Nope. Need HIDs for this.

What do you mean eyebrows that "light up"? Do you mean illuminated from behind by the headlights?

It looks like a separate light inside the eyebrow area.

Yup. That is it. I guess they are 'eyebrows' as opposed to the 'eyelids' around the headlights..Thanks...GR

HIDs are a must, after having my first car with them in 2002 I have yet to drive one without.
