Basicly i want to do Eugene's eyebrow mod but cant sorce the LED's from here in the UK and the only place seem to be radio shake in the US
So if theres a kind person out there that would be happy to purchase the LED's for me and ship them to me in the UK id be happy to pay for your time and effort (and the LED's) over paypal with a big thanks
from over the pond
Fingers crossed!

sure. I can do that for you but did u check if radioshack.com ships international? You should order a lot more than 12 tho. maybe like 20 of them since sometimes, the white leds are actually a little amber in color. All you have to do is pay for shipping and the LEDs. Time and effort is free

Unless, of course, the person doing the asking is me then all bets are off. I wonder why people hate me? What I am asking doesn't even require knowledge; all it takes is trying the single sweep windshield wiper 3 or 4 times and see if the wipers go down all the way or stay parked one or two inches above the usual position at all.

I would have post a reply if i knew the answer but i didnt, I think alot of people are the same. I do look for topics when I get time that havent been answered to see if i can help but I am relatively new to the E60, it would be handy to have a BMW tech on the board.....
This is a really good site with a good bunch of knowledgeable guys, this is one of the reasons i wanted another BMW. Audi wasnt as good for this type of thing, and the dealerships were crap + their cars werent that quick.

There are plenty of _real_ electronic suppliers that ship internationally...
My favorite and fastest supplier is:
www.digikey.com
But you're likely to save money with:
allelectronics.com
Otherwise, I'd be more than happy to help anyone overseas...
