Be sure to check the production date on the headlights. My X is an 03, but produced in 11/02 on the door placard. The headlights from it are from 7/02. You may be able to modify your lights to include the angel eyes and customize as you like. (do a search and you should find many threads with pics and write-ups)

Or if you want full aftermarket, try Custom Angel Eyes Ask richirich for details on those, he is one of many here that have those.

Just please stay away from umnitza! Do a search on them on this forum and you will find shady practices and horror stories!

I bought mine from this guy BMW E53 X5 00-03 Black Angel-Eyes Xenon Head Lights on eBay, also, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats (end time 09-Apr-09 00:06:51 BST) in Australia, had no problems fitting them and they look good”!
But if you look in eBay you will find that there are a one or two sellers selling the same product”! But like it was said above"! stay away from the very cheap looking ones in eBay"!
