Help with H8 bulbs for angel eyes

I've search and searched and I can't find a DIY for replacing the light bulbs for the angle eyes?? I was told it was just an H8 light bulb so I bought 7500k H8 bulbs but I have no clue as to where they go???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank in advance!!

Pictures would be nice!!

Do a search on LED for angel eyes, most guys that want to upgrade them here seem to turn to such a solution.
There are also 2-3 sellers here that sell this upgrade...
Something like this to to replace these

yeah! but I'm not sure I want to go to LED I just want to get rid of the awful yellow.

I figured I would use a 7500k light bulb

Like I put on my New 135i.

there is an access panel on the light assembly I pulled it out and I saw two lights one of which is for the halo's but I definitely was not an H8 light can anyone help.?

My rig is a 2004 4.4L sport pkg. and does have xenon's

The E53 actually uses a different fit than the H8 bulb. The H8s are the setup for the newer 08+ models but your car still uses a different system.

You can upgrade the look with our Predator ICE which is a direct LED based replacement module to change the color to a pure xenon white.
