What year is your car? If your handle is a derivative of your car (525), you don't have LCI.
HID AE's are pretty much plug and play, though it's recommended to review the DIY to see if you're comfortable enough with the installation.
The Audi's uses LEDs that produce approx. 18 lumens. The HID AE's easily outputs much more than that.
And why the hell would you want to install Audi's DRL into a BMW? Sorry to say, but that'll just look stupid.

Cars 2008+ are LCI. Honestly if you do have LCI that is already pretty bright and visible during the day. Are you looking to change the color or do you really need it that much brighter?

Thanks Nigx...I notice that you are the man when it came to modding the headlight. So you were able to reopen it and clean out the dirt inside, then reseal it?
Since I already ordered the light from Brabus, I'm just gonna do the brows mod and put the Eurosticker inside for a factory look. Still the idea of cutting into the headlight is a bit scary though.

And You can do the eyebrow seperately, but the Euro sticker inside, you would still need to cut inside the headlight. Since you are doing that, might as well do the Orion V2's.
Good luck man!

Regarding PIAA's bulbs output... I don't have the numbers, but it really doesn't matter. It does not compare against the HID AE's at all. That's really all you need to know, lol. I am sure other members will agree and chime in as well.
