No you can’t. They default to white when you switch them on so you don’t drive around illegally. You can set favourites and patterns.

This is just the first stage. I have more to do yet, then it’ll make more sense.
Ah I know what you're going for! Park up in a dark place, lights on, massive stereo on, party time! lol :rocker:

Jon, what did you use on your headlights to make them look dark but transparent?
