Ok im trying to make the angel eyes on my 08 M5 the whitish blue color. I have done a ton of reading and can't find exactly what I need for my 08. On ebay there are some bulbs that say they are for an 08 but I thought in 08 the angel eyes used an H8 bulb? Also is there only one bulb to light up both rings in each light or is there a smaller bulb that I need to replace for the littler rings closest to the grill? I have put leds in all my other cars and it hasn't been a problem but I just can't figure out which bulbs I need for my 08. Any help would be great!! Thanks

2006 M5 dont have the LCI headlights that 2008's have. HID angel eyes only work for 08+ unless you upgrade your headlights to LCI.

For all 2006 and 2007 -- Get the ORION V2, nothing comes close not even the HID kid for the LCI's

Orion V2's are LED angel eyes (Rings) currently made by Umnitza (Umnitza.com)
While it is hard to install they are MIND blowing.


NOTHING COMES CLOSE to them as far as reliability, light output and construction.

Your rings will be visible from a half kilometer - They are that DAMN bright.

I would say thats the best mod I ever did

I agree. My lights will be mounted today. Finally had enough time to complete. Check out my last thread so you can see what they look like in the video that I posted.
