i have my umnitza v3 sitting in my garage and i keep feeling like this might be more than what i can do. it seems easy, but the umnitza ones comes with 2 power and 2 ground wires along with a small socket and a larger one. Most of the diy that i'm finding only has 1 power and 1 ground wire and I see people only plugging in the small socket. i'm not sure where the other power and ground wires along with the larger socket is suppose to go. the plugs aren't attached to the wires either.. 
where does the plug on the left go??

The larger plug is for the E39's and other models. He does that so you can transfer them to another BMW in the case you change cars. Also easier to sell them which is nice. But it does make things a lot messier. :shrugs:

Thanks! Is it ok/safe to just leave the wires free hanging in the the headlight? Granted i'd be covering it in electrical tape or something or even putting the larger plug on the wires and then covering the ends of the plug with electrical tape...
As long as you cover it in electrical tape, and i recommend zip tying the loose wires so its not bouncing around..it should be fine

Just did AIB v3.0's myself without removing the headlight assembly. Once I got the left one done, the right was a snap. Due to the learning curve, the left took about 40 minutes, the right took 15! I used some longer needle nose pliers as well as some normal pliers. I scratched up the old ones a bit, but who cares (they are real junk). And it was actually very easy to pop the new ones in and give that slight turn to tighten.
For those of you considering taking off your entire headlight assembly, forget it...not necessary. Just remove the radiator cover with a torx 25 bit and a drill to give you more room to move. That part was real easy!
And whalla, all done.
I also did my FOGS today with Hoen lights recommended by C's Bimmer (pics 5 & 6: left OEM, right HOEN). Give a look!
Thanks to all those who gave me advice, like Calton and JRV550i (whose DIY above was great!) and others who posted DIY's in the past!
