Curious why you want to go halogen to halogen? Might as well go xenon?

Also, I am assuming it's a typo, but E60s started in 2004.

LCI headlight has a different plug so you have to do some re-wiring ...

The hard way probably using some sort of multimeter to test what is the function of each pin or find BMW WDS = Wiring Diagram System to guide you ... having WDS is probably a must when working on this car.
