Got it! I finally pulled the old bulbs out, and put these new ones in. The result is great. Thanks pinguhk.

Anyway, pinguhk mentioned something about using LED before, can you elaborate on it? what was the problem for switching out? what kind/size did you use?

Thanks.

I think he meant to say that LED's blow out too fast + they are more expensive.

so how do these compare to those $100-$300 angle eye upgrades? these are just bulbs while the other seem to be like a whole socket unit.

This is only applicable to E60s with halogen lights. If you have xenon, then you should go with the Angelibright or predator ice upgrades. And there is a group buy going on, I'm sure you know already.

Wow these look really good. You can run our V2 LED Sidemarker Bulbs in place of these as well to get the xenon output.
