Great DIY! I need to do this today. I have to replace my Xenon-bulbs and update the angels to leds.

so you must have retrofitted the LCI lights you have on the pics?

I also notced the LCI heads inone picture and I think here is the explanation to this.

I also need to thank forum members Bedford530i and JRV550i, as I used some of their photos and instructions.

MTEC V2 cost effective, brightest, and whitest. Everyone can go to youtube and search e60 angel eye for a demo on how to install the angel eye. Follow my DIY for removing headlights

If it was a picture of my car, I don't have LCI headlights. I do however, have those stickers on the side of them that cover up the orange.

Great DIY man. Will use it tomorrow and try to get to a PDC sensor that way instead of removing the bumper.

Worked like a charm and probably took 1/10th of the time vs tearing down the bumper Thanks again! This forum rules!
