how can i clear out the orange on my headlamp ...do i have to buy an entire new housing ?

oohhh and lastly..

i will have premium sound and i was reading the amp for the seat subs are in the trunk....
can i splice into the wires coming into the amp from the head unit and run them to
a new 1000 watt amp and some 12's ?

Welcome aboard!

Someone on Ebay (oemgermanparts) has the clear headlights for $1049 bucks, and the clear taillights for 399 bucks.

But can we trust'em? :huh:

Welcome, there's some posts on the board about the TV, computer and sub-woofer installation.

Try Mr. Search.

Welcome to the forum RAS1398, :D

Sounds like you're going to hook up your e60. Please post pics when you get your car. :thumbsup:

Central Cali :whistle:

:wow: That's about $500.00 a square inch to get rid of the yellow reflectors!

welcome aboard, ras1398 :thumbsup:! sorry to say but you have to change the entire headlight for the clear euro headlight look :'(.

Welcome and an Early Congrats....

This company www.nav-tv.com has the adapter kit you need to make your stock navigation a TV and DVD player. Ive bought a kit for them for my old E46 M3 2 years ago.

Like everyone else said...Bekkers.com for the clear Euro light assembly... There isn't just a clear piece for the turn signals yet.. You will have to swap out the entire headlight assembly.

Check the Aux. Output thread, buried in there is pictures of someone who installed a computer, and was able to have it come up on the Idrive screen.

Welcome RAS1398, I know it was more than exciting. I too am going out to pick up my new car. I'm not sure I quite make the 9 year old level. More like 6 on Christmas day! Enjoy your new ride and post lot's of pictures, I know I plan to if the weather holds for he weekend! :D
