Just thought I'd let everyone know that I finally had a chance to install the headlights last night. WOW, they are very very nice. The quality is definitely on par with the OEM headlights which is great.

The halos are beautiful and are VERY bright, you'll definitely get noticed at night (hopefully the cops won't care). Overall it's a great product that really updates the look of the 2000-2003 X5s.

Well worth the $$$ in my opinion, even just to get rid of all the pit marks from your old lenses from years of use on the roads. I used the stock Xenon ballasts & bulbs and they work great.

Out of the box the headlight alignment was pretty good. I did adjust them slightly to what my factory lenses were but overall if you don't feel like messing with adjusting them you shouldn't have any problems.

You'll note that these have the ECE beam pattern so you'll notice street signs and other things being more visible at night. This isn't a defective product or lense, this is by design. European X5s have this beam pattern and its very nice.

Overall a really nice product for the money. Since its 50 degrees today I'm going to finish up the wiring and get everything ready for winter...

If you are on the fence, buy these. They are a great addition to the X5.
