My Ride: 2008 Silverstone II E60 M5 2012 E70 AW X5 50i Sport w/ LCI Aero Kit and Rocker Panels
R - I was thinking about going this route with the new X5. I ended up going with the GP Thunders, but now that I'm running 6000K Xenons, the AE's don't look white anymore. Therefore, I'm thinking about changing them up to HID's.
Two questions...
1) Do you get any error messages?
2) What vendor and brand did you use?

Seems like this would be possible for pre-lci Angel eyes. It just a matter of having light source consentrated like the angel eye bulbs.

My Ride: 2009 Alpine White e92 M3
C,
1) No error msgs at all.
2) It's from member camaross305 from M3post and regarding the brand, I don't think there's a brand because he makes it after you order it and it takes about 2 weeks.
I have PM'd him and asked him if this are compatible with e60 and or if he can make one for e60's or any other model. I'll let you guys know what's up.
