My friend has a 2008 528i without xenon lights, and he wants to upgrade his angel eye color from yellow to white.
What bulb do I use? Where can I buy these bulbs? And how do I install it?
I searched and I keep getting inconsistent answers on installation and with no link to buying bulbs.
I prefer to buy in a store, like autozone if possible. But I will buy online only from good sources.

My friend found these bulbs online from Hong Kong for like $35 and I def dont trust them....

No one sells these bulbs. What u need to do is remove the factory angel eye bulbs, send it to me, and I modify it so it has bright white LEDs.

sure. but unfortunately, this is not my car and i dont have great access to it... maybe like once every 2 months since my friend lives far away lol. so i cant buy random bulbs and try it.
I wish someone just gave me a source of where to buy LEDs or w/e bulb I need to do this, rather than try and sell something to me as a middleman.

Also, I dont know much about E60 lighting... like what is LCI and preLCI... and if an E60 produced in 2008 with halogen only has LCI
