Welcome and I hope your enjoying the e60. I have the same vehicle. You have what is referred to as a LCI e60. There are plenty of options available if you search the forum for LCI "angle eyes" or AE for short. IF you cant find it searching feel free to ask..i know I did.
I have the Mtech V3 LEDs which I purchased from John at Motorcepts (member here and has a website). Not extremely bright but the best plug and pay 'WHITE LEDs" I could buy. link to my install below.

[QUOTE=NeRwEEzy;1484167]+1. if you have xenon headlights, a solution we have is our 12W LED angel eyes which would be compatible with your LCI e60 =)[/QUO

What Nerweezy and Gene mean is: are the headlights themselves Bi-Xenon? This is easy to tell, if your car has Premium pkg, then you have Xenon headlamps. I have the bi-xenon adaptive headlights (LCI) and the 12w leds AE from Trinity are plenty bright enough for me. Your options will be further limited if you have halogen headlights.

Let's try again ...
... the 1st 2 pics are LCI Bi-Xenon so they are using standard H8 bulb for AE and the frosted lens cover on the smaller inner reflector.
... the last 2 pics are LCI halogen based on the look of the non-standard lookin' AE bulb ... just a guess ... 528 maybe ... since you mentioned came w/o HID???
... so they are not the same kind ... what kind of car you exactly have?
