Another angel eyes question

I want angel eyes on my X5. So far I have not seen anyone that makes them that fit the high beem light. Does anyone know of someone that makes these that fit right?

Even the OEM 5 series headlights (shown here retrofitted into an X5) do not have rings that match the size of the high beam -

I haven't seen anyone do it properly yet. I even bought a used set of 2004 headlights and sent them to Umnitza to install in my 2002 headlight assembly. After waiting a month without headlights, I told them to send everything back. (Stay away from them.)

I know it's possible to do, just don't have the time and effort to put into it. Finally I considered keeping my X5 until I decide to trade in for a 2004 or newer.

One of the angel eyes vendors has a kit with different-sized rings to fit the size of the high-beam section. I forgot what it's called, God, there are so many of them nowadays.

I am trying to work with this guy to develop a set of eyes that look like they are supposed be there. I told him he has the best looking kit, but they still look aftermarket. I think I am making a little progress. I will keep everyone informed.
