FYI. I used Adrian from Sf bmw coding dot com. He is very familiar with coding out the Umnitza Headlight Issues. He also programmed a whole bunch of Little things on the car. Turn Signals in HUD Display, the key also does a whole bunch of stuff when locking the car. His email is adrian at sf bmw coding dot com.

i can also vouch for Adrian. Super cool dude who knows what he is doing. It took less than 5min for him to code out the error lights after getting my umnitza LED headlights installed.

Bad news from Umnitza did anybody receive this email from them?

After many days of discussions and attempts to get an answer from the factory about delivery time frame of F10 pre LCi and post LCI Xenon lights, we have been told that due to supply issues at osram, the main chip supplier, they would not be able to provide us any Xenon replacement headlights until August. 4 weeks from now. We have not received direct details but we suspect that Osram and our supplier may have discovered a bug in the boards. This sadly also affects all F30 Halogen headlights too.

In the descriptions they seem to know what they are talking about
Id say if they are ready to be shipped, someone with a 2013 should give them a try.
