I've read a ton of the angel eye threads, trying to figure out which ones will work for my 2010 528xi.

I'm definitely not capable of taking apart my headlight and I'm not inclined to have anyone else do it, so I am looking at options that are fairly "plug and play."

This seems to be the best option:
High Power H8 6W LED Bulbs Marker for BMW Angel Eye Rings (One Pair)
Does anyone have a better recommendation? It seems like most of the plug-and-play kits are for Pre-LCI models with Xenons, which is not me. I'm LCI, but I don't think I have xenons.

I've attached two pics of my lights in case anyone knows. I don't know why the photo makes it so white, it's really quite yellow in color. Second photo (with flash turned off) shows it much better.

Edit: fixed link, sorry. Not clear if that will work on my car, though it says E60 2008-UP.

The link you have posted is actually a HID conversion kit. Has nothing to do with angel eyes actually.

Ahh, awesome. I'll wait then. Perhaps I'll have to order your interior kit in the meantime. :-)

if you have halogens there aint any aftermarket solutions, after am onth of having the new car i was sick of the yellow lights. Made some custom bulbs and they look awesome will post some pics did take ages but they changed the look.

If you got a few hours spare its worth doing

I used to carry the custom bulbs. Didnt really like how it came out. Not too bright. Will hope for a solution tomorrow.

Yip john, found ur work on another forum and was waiting for another solution from but gave it a try.

Used pre lci xenon angeleyes upgrades i.e. similar to mtec. Cut the fronts down by an inch and modded the back and bent the pins so they fit.
Then cut the rings of the bulbs in the car and silconed them on the mtec like bubls as there samller results are quite amazing..
