M3 replica fog delete. Question

M3inMG · 04-29-2012, 04:47 PM

So my m3 front bumper will be here and i have been looking for how to do the fog delete. So far i know i can order the oem air ducts and will need little modification. But what about it throwing an error. Do you connect the wires and just leave them tucked back behind bumper? Thanks for any info in advance.

you could do that, but i'd rather just disconnect the bulb, tie the wires back, and code out the error rather than cutting wires

That is what i was thinking. I did not plan on cutting the wires. How would i code out the error? Or anyone know someone who has done this already. I see plenty done on the forum.

Best option here. Just find a coder local to you to code out bulb checks

why not just leave the bulbs in and tuck them away in the bumper? just never turn them on obviously

Cuba · 04-30-2012, 01:36 AM

yea id just tuck them away until i can get them coded out

M3inMG · 04-30-2012, 10:57 PM

Thank you Troy and Cuba... I am going to do that. I never turn on the ones i have now. I can't remember ever using them.

Just remember to have a dremel. It will save you lots of time.
