After seeing the PIAA's, I think the AngelIBrights look better, however I am leasing and I can't justify spending that much $$ just to upgrade those rings.

ImAzNUmKaY,
How difficult were the angleibrights to install, on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the hardest, I would hate to screw up the headlight assembly, especialy becasue of the xenons.

The Angel Brights are very easy to install. It is as simple as changing a bulb. I have them on my X5. The hardest part (which may not be an issue on the 5er) was getting to the bulb itself to change.

1) If you have xenons, there are only 2 bulbs to change...one per side. If you have regular halogens, there are four bulbs..one for each ring but I don't believe these PIAAs are for the angel eyes on halogen headlights
2) I also got the AngeliBrights and I think they look great. Hope my avatar is a good enough pic.
3) I've read that to change the bulbs, you have to take out the headlight assembly to get at the bulbs due to the adaptive motor. You have to wiggle it a bit and it'll come out. I had a shop install my bulbs while they were doing some other work to my car.
