"Light" versions, ~3 GB, of these very large data files can be installed with E-Sys. Apparently, they support most things that BMW owners want to change. However, coding anti-dazzle and variable light distribution might require the full data file because this apparently requires VO (Vehicle Order) coding which BimmerCode doesn't support.I used BimmerCode to change a few parameter values that some have asserted enables anti-dazzle and variable light distribution. I can definitely see that something very different is occurring at night, but I don't know whether this is the correct behavior or even whether U.S. headlights have a sharp enough top cut-off to avoid dazzling on-coming drivers and drivers ahead.My old 128 GB Intel MacBook doesn't have enough disk space for the installation of the full data file that I believe is shared by ISTA and E-Sys. I examined the compressed data file's contents and could see many directories for BMW models other than the i3. I could decompress this data file ignoring those directories for other BMW models to reduce the disk space required by the installed data files. However, there are many other directories with names not obviously related to any BMW model, so these would probably have to be installed. I have no idea how much space could be saved by not installing directories intended for BMW models other than the i3 or whether such an installation would function correctly.
