Ok so today I put in my "bimmer xenon" from jimmy 540i. Now I was going to go for a good HID kit....but said wow this look great on the site....let me try them out. I put them in wait till night to really look at them and 110 dollars later (for low beams and fog lights)....I am extremely pissed. The box it came in looks strikingly alike to NOKYAs and he made his own label! made in germany! YEAH OK! These look like silverstars honestly....55 bucks a bulb for something I could have gotten for 20 bucks easily. Im just gonna get an HID kit soon. Just warning everyone dont waste your time. On top of this I emailed him and said my lowbeams came but my foglights didnt....he said they ship seperately...still havent gotten those so I cannot comment on them. Im pretty sure jimmy is on this forum and honestly....I must say I am not happy with this. I dont respect anyone who takes what probably is NOKYA bulbs....takes the packaging out...put his own poor excuse for a label in it and jacks up the price. Ill upload pictures of the box and lights at night soon.

I think I am going to go with the ICE soon. I know you have to take the headlight off for those though. Are they really just easy plug and play like the pictures? I think the ICE are brighter no?
if you dont have non xenons then they just plug and play.
if you have xeon then you will need the ice which cost alot more

I once bought a set from him for my e39, after reading about Jimmy, I wanted a refund, and I got it.
