Remember a previous post about the the Inner Horseshoe Angel Eye? A lot of us wondered why some cars have them and some don't. Well I thought I had them but didn't know how they came on. Well issue solved but you may know already.

Its only on E60s with Xenons (and Adaptive Xenons). Its just a reflection from the normal Angel Eyes.
So everyone with Xenons have them.

Here's a picture.

Seems like no one was interested in my post as only one reply.

Was only trying to be helpful in solving one mystery.

I think yours is cleaner!

And probably a lot less miles on it.. Mine has done about 14000 now i think.

Our wives say the same thing. Sometimes we just never show any gratitude for all those little things.

I'm not one of those guys, but the first time I read it, I looked at the picture and blinked. I couldn't tell the difference between the reflection and the original. I still don't understand how it works. :'( But I do appreciate the information. Thanks.
