PIN Change is the most of easy and safe way if you want to use 09's of Headlight.
Update the car's computer is because of the configuration is different compare with the 08's Headlight. It's let the Headlight work with the right configuration.

For example:
1.Low beam is instead of by DRL in 09's Headlight.

I hate to even ask, but for us noobs, what is involved in changing the PIN and updating the computer?

Nice! A little over the top but unique. I'm sure it's pretty menacing coming down the road.

That looks great...
I don't agree with any of the negativity in regards..
I think it looks like a concept car that has been released just to you!

So, the big question is: How much did it cost?

Sorry for the confusion, I guess I should have asked how do I change the PIN and update the computer? Is this something I can do on my own or is this something that a dealer or someone with special tools / software needs to do?

Very cool. I'm interested in learning more about cost and procedure as well. Also, another set of close-up daylight pics to see the optical illusion of the gap would be great. Thanks for posting!!

As said before, don't mind the negative comments...IT LOOKS GREAT!!! Good job and if you would write up a small tutorial it would really help a lot of us here

Thanks!
