#2, ive never had to recode headlights after changing them. I just recently changed headlights out on my 135i because the po broke off every damn tab and kept the backing off the passenger and was filled with water. Installed, and headlights worked as they should (ahl, etc).
Broken tabs are a common problem. FYI, there is a $30 repair kit from BMW with replacement tabs you can screw in. I have an old thread on it floating around somewhere.
