(It would sorta work, but didn't get the nicely defined light edges that my buddy's F82 did)

I got made fun of in another post asking about coding for the G8x cars so I've almost given up asking. But do you see a bit of commonality from the G2x that might carry over?

Coding is one of my favorite aspects of BMW ownership and I've dug pretty deep into each series of car I've owned up until this point but it has all been based on guidance from others...
I had the same problem with my 2017 vs 2018 M4. 17 apparently had the shutters while the 18 didn't so like you said, it "sort of" worked. In the end I wished I'd never tried coding the 18 because the auto hi beams would be better than the half assed anti-dazzle. I never really knew if it was working well enough to not piss people off or not so I really just didn't use it, but on my 17 it was AMAZING. I'll wait to see if anyone does it successfully before I make any attempts at it. And, I don't specifically remember seeing your post, but it doesn't surprise me that you got made fun of on here.
