Hi, i know there are so many posts on light conversions etc, i have searched through them and tried to make sense of whats being said, but the differences for pre lci and halogens .v xenons and projectors and reflectors is just confusing me!!! i have found this post by pinguhk http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=49997 and i think they should work on my car, i have a 2006 e60 with stock halogens. Now i have tried to ask pingu but i think im just confusing him aswel lol. so what i want to know is if i install the bulbs pinguhk is selling i know when im on half beam i will have 2 angel eyes in white, but if i switch to full dipped beam will the light remain white, or will i have the smaller angel eye white and the larger one yellow? And if the larger one stays yellow what bulb do i need 2replace to make that white aswel? Thanks for your help and replies in advance!

For halogen, your angel eyes have two bulbs for it.

They are seperate from your high beam and low beam lights. IF you get the bulbs from pinguk, the angel eyes will remain white, whether you have high or low beam on.

I do have one last question, seeing as you asked lol. i checked the manual and it says the bulbs are 55w H7 bulbs, are these what pinguhk is selling? The only codes i can see on his bulb are MT101 or something? Thanks.

I'm not sure of the bulb type, because I don't have halogen, but pinguk has sold those bulbs to a bunch of forum members already. You'll be alright with the correct bulb.
