Turn Signal Help! (E46 M3)

Hey!
My E46 M3 is equipped with halos. They are set up to turn on when the knob is turned on to the "parking lamps" setting with the fog lights on and the fog lights must be on for the halos to be on. My Problem is when i want to turn the halos on the amber turn signals remain on and totally ruins the look. I want to set up where my halos so that the turn signals remain off. Any idea on how to do this? I would appreciate any help!
I tried google a solution but I didnt really get good results. I posted this question on m3forums.net as well, but I haven't gotten an answer yet. Thanks guys!

This is how it is set up to turn the halos on(knob is set to "parking lamps" and fog lights are on):

This can be accomplished fairly easily with coding.

It's called European Corner Delete.

On yours you only have the turnsignal on. On the E9x chassis there is the turn signal plus a seperate LED in the headlight housing and both can individually be turned on/off.
