Hello everyone, ok, so I have a 2008 528i basic model and it doesn't come with stock HID's. Lately I been trying upgrade my stock angel eyes. But FAILED. seems like the angels that umnitza supplies wont fit cause they go in too deep. Anybody have any idea where I can pick up a set that are shallow?

Due to the kind of bulb in use inside LCI halogen headlights you have to modify the bulb holder to fit the replacement bulb ... contact John @ Motorcepts.

GL!

I have a 2007 525xi (Pre-Lci) BMW. I am tryin to upgrade my AE's from the ugly yellow color to a bright white. I already upgraded the Low beam lights to HID. IF anyone has any recommendations please respond ASAP.

I have the same car with halogens and john at motorcepts can modify your stock ae bulbs to make them white. He can also supply HID low beams and HID fogs to round out the lighting upgrade. My 08 528i looks 1000% better!
