Headlight coding: Blue/Red headlights

Hi all,

Saw an interesting mod the other day on instagram:





Going from OEM color, to flashing in red and blue.

Does anyone know if it is just codeable or any hardware installs are needed within the lights?

100%! We’ve had a few cases of that already this year for red and blue lights on the car.

Not coding. New LED board with Bluetooth remote most likely.
