Exactly what do you get for your money with this pack, as my E60 seems to have less interior lighting than my wife's Mini Cooper?

A single LED would be enough to light your wife's Mini.

EDIT: Just so we're clear. I of course am making a little joke here regarding the size of the Mini Cooper automobile. (Don't want anyone to think I'm making any deragatory comments about a man's wife!)

Hiya,

I asked this exact same question back in March and was pleased to be directed to the following thread, with a cool picture supplied by Iceman:

I ordered it...

Ex Lights package is nice but not necessary I didn't have it on my first one but do on my curent one. I think its extremely mean of BMW not to do it as std fit. Just like the self dipping mirror. Next you'll only get one headlight and the second will be an option. Give us ya dollars

Tyke,

Not shown in Icemans pic are the front footwell lights and the extra boot light in the lid.

Tyke,

Looking at the picture, the picture makes it seem as though they are very bright and light up your inner doors like a canival, when in fact they are VERY subtle lights (small little orange LED's) very similar to the brightness as the ones in the headliner next to the map lights. Personally, its purely asthetic, but I love it myself. My buddy has it on his 645ci and it makes the cockpit look more fighter-jet-ish.

cheers
