So you had to do some coding to fix this? Thanks for spending the time to document the process, I definitely plan to try this!!

I just ordered the V4, can't wait to try this!

So for how long and at what temperature did you bake the headlights? How about when you put them back together, did you bake it again to loosen up the sealant? Or did you just apply new sealant?

Thanks. You can't really tell in pictures. I am wondering about the advertised color temp though. I guess there is only one temp at this point. Your daytime shots are great. They look amazing.

I didn't bake them, I just used a heat gun and they came apart very easiely, actually second light I barely used the heat gun and I just pried it open, then cleaned the old sealant and applied new one!

On the Orion V4 kit, I see that there are three wires red, white and brown. What did you do with the red wire? Did you cut and wired it to the brown wire?

Cbozz. You can code that dimming of the AE rings when low beams are on to be not aktiv. It will keep the AE rings as bright as with or without any othe lights being on.
E90Pat should be able to code that for you of any local shop that does coding. It looks awesome without the dimming
