I have the smoked LED lenses from Bimmian.. here's my post http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=65373&hl=.. very easy install especially when you follow the Bimmian DIY video.. I think the black sidemarkers might be cooler looking than the smoked ones I got..

WARNING******WARNING
do not buy these!
well it looks like i was the guinnea pig... yes they looked good and worked, but the fitment made them a little shorter then the stock lenses. they also are very loose on the car and slide too easily, enough to make them fall out of the slots at higher speeds..... these are cheap and im pissed.... looks like ill have to buy from a more reliable source and begin my wasted money check list.

They probably sent you ones for the E46 or E90. Some companies think they're the same size but it's not. I did the same thing a while ago with another vendor but forgot which company it was. Check with them just in case.
