My Ride: 2006 (56) E60 520d M Sport in Carbon Black
Default

I recently bought a E60 sport after my E46 sport was written off last month. Anyway i have halogen factory fit headlamps and was tired of the yellow angel eyes. I was recommended these by someone on a different forum. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/W5W-501-T10-8-LED-NO-ERROR-CANBUS-LED-POSITION-LIGHTS_W0QQitemZ270634203360QQcategoryZ72233QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m263QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DDLSL%252BSIC%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUCI%252BIA%252BUA%252BFICS%252BUFI%26otn%3D8%26pmod%3D270635777849%252B270635777849%26po%3D%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5313471285132219821

But can you see them in the daylight??? I bought custom halo's for my E46 and you can barely see them in the day. So I am being extra careful with my new E60 purchases.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Yes they are hard to see in bright daylight however they look great at dusk and at night. I would say its well worth it, and if you don't like it then just put the old bulbs back in. In the words of stevenbeboo 'LITTLE MOD, BIG DIFFERENCE'
