Changing interior lights to Xenon
Has anyone replaced their interior lights with the xenon light kit bulbs ? What type of bulbs did you get? Are you happy with the look? Are they brighter than the stock? Any pics?

I haven't done it, but I remember those who did said it wasn't brighter.

What forum should he be in? Denalio's signature indicates he owns an X5. I think it's fairly understandable that he's speaking of an X5. We have enough mods, we don't need any self-annointed ones.

Tons of members on here have the interior xenon kit from us. It's just a simple direct bulb replacement with xenon colored. We have the kits available on our website or through the following link:

I posted in this forum because I am sure that the E53 owners have much more experience with this type of mod and can give valuable insight to quality issues and any problems with this mod. Also, the E70 being so new I did not think anyone would have already performed this mod. Thanks for all the input E53 owners, X5 owners.

That's exactly what I thought and why I didn't move the thread.
