Hi...newbie here...was wondering if anyone knows or has anyone HID'd your angel eyes...or if it even works or how to make them super bright to run as DRLs

I have a titansilber '06 530i with an M5 facelift and matte black M6 wheeels...

thanks!

hid angel eyes work on LCI XENON head light only. pre-LCI won't be able to install them.

Covered many times over. Do some reading and browse around.

If you want some sexy angel eyes for E60, you definitely have to be willing to spend the dough.

Check out a recent angel eye install I did for a member:

@ nomis_nehc....that E60 looks pre-LCI.....what did you install to make the halos so bright?
And it looks great! Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,

It is a pre-LCI. The headlights received full make over with black out, clear lens swap, and Orion v2 angel eyes with my special ring treatment to make the rings even.

Orion v2 is currently the king of angel eyes for E60s, just that the install requires cutting headlights open. If you want to learn more, reach 5+ posts, and you can use the private messaging to talk to me.

thanks, now i feel like my white LED swap was very inferior. I like how you blacked out all the orange but its still transparent.
