This way if there are any issues with the lights (like receiving the wrong one's) umnitza can reship new lights before you ship out your headlights. I promise that you will be happy. I know I am. He has done over 50 orion installs on just the e60. he is your best hope.

Luis from OSS does buy our rings. There is no "rebranding" going on, they are Orion v2 rings.

We can ship you the rings but Luis is booked up solid for a bit, so you may want to get the rings first and then talk to him about time and availability, he does good work.

Well it's because Orions are so bright that cameras can't really capture it correctly. Besides, if you were to think about it, if the rings are larger, it wouldn't fit into the housing correctly without modification.

well not larger in diameter. what i meant to say was larger in girth, thicker rings. in any case, yes simon would be the goto guy for headlight/coding stuff in socal. coded my E60 when i had it.
