Anyone change out the interior/courtesy lights with the yellowish tint to xenons that give off a whiter/bluer light? I've looking into the ones sold on bimmian.com but have been told they are not that bright. Suggestions on a brand, where to buy, tips on install? TIA

I did a free installation for freed0m, and in my opinion, don't waste your money. It does not look as good as stock.

I have seen this in the new Lexus IS250 and its quite cool, but they were focused so they don't throw as wide a beam as the BMW's.
