I've recently purchased and installed Bruce's cables (ver. 4). All I have to say is... they are great product and really plug-n-play. It took me less then 15 minutes to install both lights.
But I didn't get the LCI light modules from Bruce, since I already got them from Garry before I found out about Bruce's deal.
Thanks Bruce. Keep up the good work.

If you order a kit from me you always get the latest revision, currently that's v4.
With my cables all you are doing is upgrading your current Taillights to the newer LCI ones. Nothing else is affected or needs to change. The angel eyes issue was with the BMW OEM solution where you needed a new LCM and a lengthy install plus new programming and new headlights too. If you are thinking about upgrading both your headlights and taillights then I would suggest the BMW OEM kit.
The v1 and v2 versions of my kit used to make the LED rods and Turn light strobe. However I managed to fix that issue for the Turn light. To keep costs down for people I did not add the StrobeFree circuit to the LED rods because if you have your Light Switch on any position besides OFF or 0 you don't get the strobing anyway. So yes the strobbing issue has been fixed.

I have them installed and boy does it look nice!
If anyone considers modding his non LCI E60-E61 this should be the first mod.
It's just 4 nuts per light and attaching the new cable, very very easy.
The cables work fine, I have just one small issue (nothing optical) with them but I have already contacted Bruce on that.
Here are some mobile phone pictures of the install;
