Hey guys, great to find a site for e60 lovers, lol....I just picked up a E60 M5 and im looking for a few tips with installing the cornering bulbs and changing the license plate bulbs and which bulbs to use, also the interior bulbs as well. I have been hearing much about this sprintbooster, any install help and does it really help so much ? Thanks !!!

Congratulations on the M5! It is an awesome car! As for your questions, the search bar on the top left hand corner of the forum is really useful. You'll be able to get most of the information you need for things such as Sprint Booster. Which is a must mod on this forum, BTW~ I've read on here (forum) that there is a new version just for M cars. I think member 'C's Bimmer' just recently installed one. Enjoy the forum and happy motoring!

Congrats on the M5! Those mods were the first mods that I did too. I can't believe what a difference the GP Thunders make for the Angel Eyes and the Cornering Lights.

You can't beat $15 for the Angels and $13 for the Cornering Lights!

For the Sprint Booster, contact Andy Wong. Do a search and you will find his email. Cost is $315, including shipping. Make sure you mention you have the M5, as they just released the M Sprint Booster a few months ago. It's insane on the M5!
