Hi Everyone!
This is a video that shows you how to retrofit the genuine Union Jack tail-lights on a Halogen equipped mini F56. This tutorial includes the following steps:
Removing the halogen lights,
Swapping pin 1 to 5 in the light connector (not required if you already have LEDs)
Installing the Union Jack Light
Coding out cold and warm, voltage monitoring with Bimmercode and a Vgate adapter
Coding the BDC in expert mode to allow the lights to light up correctly with only 5 pins (you must do this if you originally have halogen lights so that the new Union jacks work to work properly)
Please note the coding and pin swapping is not required for the aftermarket lights with the control modules, only for the genuine mini lights :)
Let me know if you have any questions about the install or any tips for other people!
Stay tuned for more F56 content!
