Retrofitting dynamic xenon to factory halogen e90 LCI

So as the title suggests, I am trying to convert my halogen e90 LCI from 2011 to dynamic xenon headlights, and I need a couple questions answered if possible.

1. The headlights turn on and work fine now, however what work needs to be done in order to get the dynamic feature working? I know I'll need to put on auto levelling sensors and get them coded in, however I can't see realistically any other hardware that the car would need?
2. The headlight washer is a legal requirement of course, and I know many people get them coded out but I'm looking to get them working. All the hardware is in place however I'm at a loss on where to wire it to and how to code it in (even who I can rely on to code it in). I was can see from comparison that the fuse box is exactly the same as on an e90 lci that has the washer pump in from factory, does this need to be coded to the junction box electronic control module?

Any help here would be hugely appreciated!

Yes you would code JBM. Have you wired PT CAN to FRM yet?

I believe so, is this the wiring between the headlight module and the frm?

No that's a LIN bus. PT can is inside the car (and at DSC DME/DDE) at junction box.

Ah yes that sounds right, then no I haven't wired PT can. I don't seem to be finding anything but is there anywhere online that shows how to do that? Or would a BMW specialist be able to do this? I've been searching near me and I can't seem to find anyone.
