EU F30 Drivers - Do the front amber sidemarkers come on at night?

I really don't like the amber side marker lights that come on at night on the F30. I ordered chrome bulbs (one set that are hyper white light and another set that are chrome, but still shine amber).

Was going to change them to one of these bulb sets (to at least get rid of the egg yolk look during the day), but as I was programming, I realized that there is an option to disable the front amber markers for the US. Blinkers still work, but at least the markers won't come on. In Europe do those amber side markers come on? If not, does anyone have a night pic w/ the night lights on that they can post? Curious to see how it looks.

No, they don't come on. No pics, but I think you'll prefer it that way.

Just programmed the car to disable the front markers at night. Looks sooooo much better!

Side markers are not fitted to EU/ROW spec cars. See the main section for pics.
