Made in Japan 12v8w white bulbs
Headlights without xeon lights.
change these bulbs when the car and the bulbs are cold
open bonnet
undo the cap by turning it, both the headlights and High beam light. Make shore you dont drop the cap down the car itis very easly done
these are the cap, put them somewere safe, like on the floor, never put things inside the engine bay.
put you hand and you can feel on the top there is a light holder. Just grip it and put hard and it will pop out.
change the new bulbs in and then push it back into the slot.
when putting it back in, bend down and you will see a slot in the middle of the light and the bulb holder will pop in.
make shore you hear a pop sound then it is fulling in and will not drop out.
There you go you have a very nice white rings
if you what to buy some of there bulbs please pm me, I will help you out.

Thanks for the pics and instructions. So, if I'm reading this right, this is to change out the yellowish look of the angel eyes to brighter white? And did you say that this will not work with a car that has the xenon lights? I have a 2006 550i with xenon lights and I just changed out my foglights to better match the headlights, but now I just want to "fix" the yellowish angel eyes and make them brighter. Please pm me the cost if the fix. I am at 20147 in the US.

The Non-Xenon headlights have a different bulb for their Angeleyes.
since you have the Xenon Headlights, your options are either Umnitza Angel Eyes or AngeliBright upgrade.
There are plenty of topics and posts about these products, you can find them on the forum or search on the internet.
Good luck.
