If your question is "Do I have Angel Eyes?" then the answer is: Yes, you do ALL E60's (and most BMW's since the early 2000's) have Angel Eyes regardless if you have Halogen or Xenon. So yes, brabus could send you the bulbs you need.

I Think those are Halogen Headlights and You surely have Angel eyes as all E60s headlights have Angel eyes. Do the following:

1-What you should do is to turn on your lights and take a picture and show us.

2-Do it yourself or take it to a local shop and have them check for you if the bulb is burnt(or you can do it yourself). If so, then PM John AKA brabusw209amg, and give him your Car Model year and your address and he will give you an estimate of the bulbs shipped. He is a very nice guy to talk to and very patient, so you can rely on him.

3-If it is not burnt bulbs, I would check the wiring.

4- If none of the above, then this is ur last option. Check if any fuses or any faults were erased by the previous owner or cable cancelers or I dunno( out of ideas)

Hope this helps.

yup, those look like halogens to me as well.

Yeah, DO NOT look into the headlight while on. Or while the car is moving. Especially, its moving at you.

BTW OP, your headlights look like the non-xenon type halogen headlights, which would mean that you should have the rings there. Maybe the previous owner took out the bulbs and put in resistors, or smth... IDK ask John

can someone do me a big favour please? because im new to this forum so i cant use the pm system to contact john...so if anyone is kind enough to get him into my post please???? thx ag for every X 10000!!

but its a good news that i have got angel eyes at least. i just went out and took some pics under day light, when i turned on that ' angel eye' system, which i realise that its actually the same as the other e60, there isnt a ring at all? its just like nthing happens, altho, ican see the yellow stripe of the indicators....

so is it the bulbs' problem that is causing the disappearance of the ring?

p.s. i will take some other pics tonight, so the contrast would be more obvious. but im very bad at takin photos....so i will do my best.

once ag, thx for helpin me out!!!

btw, im pretty sure that its the halogen type since its not the crystal ball type headlight, and its the kind of light bulb shape that i use for the halogen light in my house's toilet.

guys, thx for helping..but JOHN who is the man, sorted out my problem. but just one more thing, is it ever possible to change the halogen headlight to the xenon type??? how much? and wher to find??

Hi Barton,

Looks like you got your problem resolved, but

The E60 doesn't allow LED Angel eyes with the OEM housing, but come with a built in angel eye system that uses a single high output LED that illuminates the rings built into the headlight assembly. You could replace the stock unit with a higher output one similar to the one I used in my E39. I found my MTEC V2's at Umnitza.com. They installed pretty easily for me... but check out this video to see the installation.
