orange is an unknown quantity at this point
Don't do this on a car with HID. You can easily burn out your lamps by turning them on/off rapidly.

As usual, these people fail to mention the bmw police lights, STANDARD on ALL BMW's!!!!!! This is very naughty, i wouldnt do it on the road. just in your drive!!! (spook the neighbors out)!!!!

For some reason, people dont get the hang of this quickly, but a bit of practice will get you thinking you are the traffic cop in the area!!!!

Try this.

(this is different in a LHD car, just alternate)

put your right hand on the headlight switch, and switch them to sidelights.

put your left hand on the high beam flas stick (left stick on my car)

ok, this is the basic principal. . . . . . .

with you right hand, turn the headlights on, then off after a flash, as you turn them off, pull the high beam flash (on the indicator stick,) when you let that go, switch the headlights on again, then so on, so forth.

This takes practise!! but when you have mastered it, the headlights (outside lights) and main beam (insides) will flash independantly just like on a police car, it looks good. (plus it might not be good for the bulbs, but cars with xenon bulbs will add that blue tinge to the matter, for more effect!!!!!)

Remember, I only recommend this off a public highway, in a garage or something. NOT FOR USE ON ROADS, IS HIGHLY ILLEGAL AND IRRESPONSABLE.
