I have resorted to getting them through ebay and they finally arrived at my doorstep yesterday. I will try to have them installed today and will keep everyone posted.

PS I'm praying there won't be any problems.

My bro, the feeling is mutual and yes prototypes of my new sigs are being delevoped and tested as we speak. Production versions will come soon.

breytonX5: The tails you got, are they for an E53 (since the X in your sig. is the old whip)? One of my tail-lights burnt out, so I need to cop a new set; and I am very wary of the ebay. Can you let me know what you got and how they turned out?

LeMansX5, streetoffire, jpm4.8is (and the rest): HOLD OFF from buying Ebay lights. I put mine on yesterday and experienced flickering plus there is an error message. This is what was hoping against but I just couldn't wait for the JLevi version.

What I'm thinking now is resistors are needed but this is a pain in the rear. I'm now back to the drawing boards.

The LED looks awesome especially the brake lights which are very intense. Let me try to take some pics anyway by tonight and let you guys see what they look like.

ps: to streetoffire, my new whip is also an E53.

Dang! Sorry to hear this breytonX5...I hope you can get it fixed with some resistors. How come the guy in Germany didn't have any problems? Is it a US spec thing?
