The Angel Eyes are illuminatd by a special light socket, it has a integrated bult that cannot be changed
So unless you cut it open and solder in a new bulb I dont know how you would change it

Most of us have seen 3 series with these white Angel Eyes mod. It's been posted on here before. I think that's a different set-up though.

metroE60 may or may not have modified his angel eyes to a whiter color. There are many photographic techniques that (as well as PS) that could make the lights appear whiter.
That said, I found some specific "parking light" parts in the ETK that might be for the angel eyes. I'm not doubting E60Speed at this point since he's usually right on the money with his information but does anyone know something more specific about the following circled parts?

if i remember readying correctly a while ago it was a bigger project that required disassembly of the entire housing, and some custom work.
however i could be wrong ... wouldn't be the first time.
