From all my research ive done, the angelibrights are the best and brightest like akalius said above but they are also the most expensive... recently i saw elite motorsports in our forum that sells for 105 dollars which is about 1/3 the price of the angelibrights and the feedback claims they are almost as good as the angelibrights...his post is in the vendor classifieds i believe...I am looking to do this mod myself and am debating whether to take the risk with elite or buy the angelibrights which are gauranteed the best...good luck with your decision

There are many many options for AE's I've noticed. I have heard good things about the umnitza offering, and of course the AIBs. $300 USD for AE?? I don't think so....that's just rediculous. Particularly because no AE offering can solve the issues with visibility during daylight. Some state of the art vendor needs to develop HID AE! Anyone? Please?
I got mine off of ebay and they are ok at night, but are useless during the day.

Yeah that is a bit much for Angel eye bulbs but if i can get a similar finish as the AIBs then it would be great, now the one's you got off ebay do you have a link and will they work with my 535d M Sport adaptive xenon lights

One option are the MyCarr ICE LED Upgrades which are a direct plug and play replacement to upgrade the color to a more pure white.

They are nice but an expensive mod is their a cheaper alternative

Contact Erick aka "elite_motorsports_BMW".
I haven't tried them, but considered it. I have AiB v3 Amber.
