Dave's setup is expensive, but they definately look great. Also there is excellent customer service. So far I'm satisfied.
Here are some of my pictures so you can have an idea, and I'm sure when Rich sees this thread he will post his too.

I don't recommend Umnitza for poor quality products and lack of customer service. I dealt with them first and was disappointed (product that wasn't even advertised was sent). Rich led me towards the customangeleyes.com setup.

No question - AngeliBrights:

These will be the best and brightest - hands down.

Tom - Aren't AngeliBrights for facelifted models only? The OP has a 2002.

Here is the deal!!

Dave G owns both www.customangeleyes.com

and

www.angelibrite.com


for pre face lift you have to goto www.customangeleyes.com

and 9 times out of 10 you are buyig the entire new headlight assembly which include the halo's!!! the other option is to utilize your present assembly - bake them open and do the job that way....what you will see on this website is old......search my threads and mtx5 to see what Dave's new solution is for pre face lift....

now ....for facelifted X5's.............yes ... www.angelibrite.com

........now on the flip side..you can go ebay or wherever and find halo's....and bake your headlights.....etc etc.....good examples here are x5dawg and zerochief ..search their threads because they both did an excellent job of baking and installing halo's!!

I hope this clarifies and helps!

So there's no better option for just the angel eye rings than eBay out there? Just didn't want to jump on an ebay set just to find a better option later. I just wish I could find an aftermarket set of headlights that would work with the OEM HID and self leveling setup as I would rather not modify the OEM lights if I have the option.

weasel,

It says on their website that you can just buy their angel eyes and have it installed on your exisitng headlights or a new set:

http://www.customangeleyes.com/purchase.htm

Unless that information is outdated. I'd just contact them and see what they have to say. I bet you can even get them to have the angel eye color to match the OEM headlights.

Good Luck!

I was thinking about this the other day, and I think you can pull that off. I compared the headlights i got from Dave with my OEM ones, and basically they are the same molding so there is a space for the self leveling motor. So I think if you are handy and up for it you can pull off transfering it into Dave's headlights.

Good catch - totally missed the OP's production date.

Only option would be the RDash kit for 2000-2002 models, which is CCFL:
