This is on the bavauto website for the E60







An absolute must for the fashion conscious BMW enthusiast. This simple replacement bulb and socket assembly replaces the stock unit to give the vehicle's headlamp ring a clean, white 6500 Kelvin brilliance. The super L.E.D. bulb in this assembly upgrades the color from a typical incandescent yellow, to a color typical to H.I.D. bulbs, matching the factory H.I.D. headlamps.




Part Number Description Price Qty.
19409 Piaa Angel Eye Bulb Upgrade
$129.95

Looks really interesting, but the price seem outrageous. Although anything PIAA is usually high quality.

That's $130 per side correct? Also, is this for cars with bi-xenons?

If its 130 per side then I rather get the brighter angelbright which comes out slightly more.

If any Japanese E60 owners out there can translate this PDF, we'll know more about this product. It is listed as new on the Piaa Japan website and this the PDF with more information.

I will call them tommorow to find out how many are included, it would be stupid if it was for one side only. It looks like these(6500k) are brighter than the angelibrights(4500k). I wish we could find someone who has them installed already for pics.

Couldnt wait till tommorow, I just got of the phone with bavauto, they said this is a complete set (4bulbs) and it is plug & play. Seems like its a good deal for $129.00, compared to angelibright $350.00.

4 bulbs for 129.95 sounds like a decent deal afterall! Let us know how the install goes and post some pics if you buy them!
