E60 was originally supposed to come with LED. From the US E60 dealer training materials, pre-launch:

I converted all lamps (brake/park/turn, front and rear) to LED, using extremely high brightness LED retrofits. I had tried other retrofits with limited success, and have been working on this for a while now. I finally found a combination of excellent appearance, and enough brightness and light output.

Make *sure* you're looking at post #40, because there were a couple of other posts by me with different LED retrofits that weren't nearly as good. Actually, I think it even looks better than the results on some BMW models where LEDs are stock.
