yes, that's 100% correct. Just use the existing angel eyes power connections and you're all set.

Any suggestions on the TL head lights, think it would look nice with angel eyes?
Alright, listen up guys. Here's the trick. Don't use soldering gun or Dremel. It took me less than half an hour to do one head light.
Use the Harbor Freight Multifunction power tool with Small General Purpose Angled Cutter Blade or the Dremel multi-max or similar unit. It'll slice like butter so be careful. This mod is easier than the M5 Cluster mod.
No resistors needed for pre-LCI E60s.

Sure! I'd recommend the 3/4? Wood & Metal Flush Cut Blade. Small and you'll have more control. Use a 90-135 degree angle like in my picture.

dammit, thanks for telling me now. You never responded to any of my PM's. Oh wells. Its already done for me. This method sure sounds messy. Good alternative for people that dont want to solder.
