My Ride: Late 2005 M5 in Silverstone Metallic II with Full Black Leather Interior. SMG, LOGIC7, Heated Front Seats, Rear Electric Sun Blind, Comms Package, Professional Nav, TV Function, Extended Voice Control, Adaptive Headlights
Hi guys.
My mate has just purchased a set of Angel Eye bulbs from a company called HIDS Direct on Ebay. When he starts his car up with the lights OFF, the angels strobe for about 5-10 seconds, and then stay on normally without strobing. Is there a kit out there which can stop this? Like the V5 for the LCI rear's on the E60?
Any help is greatly appreciated in advance!

Jon, don't think there is actually a kit that can prevent the strobing, it has to do with the product itself. There are other alternatives of AE brands that do not strobe (as reported by other members). AngeliBright and MyCar Ice are the 2 brands that come to mind right now..but there are others...

Most angle eyes with led's have that problem...
Got something to do with your computer checking all your lights. A normal bulb doesn't show it, but led's do.
Don't sweat it
