Best Angel Eyes 'Capsule' Retrofit

I have a 2001 X5 standard headlight model - no HID, no Angel Eyes.

I'd like to have the Angel Eyes without going to HID - in other words, replace my headlight capsules with new capsules that have angel eyes and standard halogen headlights. Clear sides (direction lights) would be nice using a silver bulb that flashes amber (have seen them, but dont know what they are called or how sold).

What manufacturer can I trust to have a good, solid, leakproof solution that meets DOT regulations??

Thanks,
Hawkeyes

I believe customangeleyes.com is the best you can get without a DIY. With this, you will have to send your headlights in to them while they install it.

I e-mailed them last week with the same details and Dave told me to call them up to work out the details. I'm sure they can work it out.

I own these! My entire headlight and fog light is from..

www.customangeleyes.com

www.angelibrite.com

IMO...i'm not quite sure how the awesome AE's will look with the yellow/brown coloring of halogen......just my opinion. If you are going to do AE's........you should also look into the HID upgrade............Dave could sell you the whole solution.......i did not even send mine into him....I decided to pull my old headlight units out and install all new custom set up from Dave..........tell Dave that you would like to look into what Rich M from CT did....he will share the info..............if you have any future questions feel free to ask as I have become a subject matter expert when it comes to this topic.... Quite a few us us here have...
