Hi everyone,

I recently purchased a 2002 BMW X5 3.0 but have had several BMWs in the past (e36, e32).

The first thing I always do is upgrade the lights for the euro look (red/clear). Purchased led tail lights and clear side markers. I am now wanting to purchase the headlights. I have been reading previous threads on this forum and learning how much everyone here prefers the DEPO brand (vs. ebay ones).

What's holding me back right now is the $$$ and the confusion of what is available and what conversions are required for the upgrade.


I certainly like the newest LEDs: 00-03 BMW E53 X5 UHP 240-LED ANGEL EYES HALO HEADLIGHTS on eBay.ca (item 380190546895 end time 21-Jan-10 03:04:27 EST)

OR the ones TOM sells:

The thing is I have stock halogens. I understand I would need to convert first to HIDs. How expensive would this be? Could someone please also provide the exact url link to the lights I would (low beam and fogs right??).


I am trying to figure how much this project would cost. Please keep in mind I live in Canada and shipping costs are sometimes just ridiculous...no clue why really....so it really does add up.


I have also seen these:
00 01 02 03 BMW X5 ANGEL *TRUE* XENON HID HEADLIGHT E53 on eBay.ca (item 170421980206 end time 18-Jan-10 16:20:57 EST)


If I convert to HID, would these lights also look white in colour?


Thank you in advance.
