Great mod. I was just thinking of this last weekend.
How do you get that plastic trim ring out without destroying it?

Anyone upgrade their high beams to HID? Which company makes the best match to the low beams?

I would also like to know more about the lifespan of these kits. What is exactly provided in the kit? Light bulbs? Do they come with a ballast, or does it use factory parts. The angel eye kit on my M3 can be problematic sometimes, but ite bearable. Im new to the X5world, so id love to get a bit more info. Thanks

Are you guys replacing the factory angel eyes? Are these much brighter or something? I thought the 4.8 came with angel eyes?

Cue03. They come with angel eyes but the factory bulbs are yellow. We're replacing the bulbs for white ones.

I thought a lot of Angel ibrights have a defect where both of them or just one of them is flickering. You must be lucky

They do flicker when I start the engine. I just live with it.

We have special pricing on the iBright for the next few weeks, see www.angelibright.com

The iBrights shipping now are around 30% brighter than the previous models.
