upgrading headlights, fog and angel eyes..

[NYCSterling]

Folks,

I need to confirm this before I order. I am upgrading my headlights to 6000k, my fogs to HID 6000k and my angel eyes to 6000k led.

These are the parts from HIDNY. Please let me know if I am ordering the correct parts for a 2006 4.4i with HID headlights.

Angel Eyes: HID-331 > 5W BMW ANGEL EYES for E39/E60/E61/E65/E66/E53/E83/E87 - HIDNY.COM HID Xenon Conversion Kit & Auto Lights, Parts from NYC
Fog HID Kit: HID Xenon Digital Ballast Conversion Kit
Headlight bulb upgrade: HID-201D2C > HID Xenon D2R/S/C Replacement Bulbs - HIDNY.COM HID Xenon Conversion Kit & Auto Lights, Parts from NYC

Questions:
-What bulb is the DRLs? is it H11?
- Are the bulbs for the headlights D2S?
- Are the Angel eyes are powered by its own bulbs, while the DRLs have their own?
- Does the fog housing in a 2006 X5 a projector type? or is it a regular reflective housing?
- How do you replace the headlight bulb?


I think thats all for now..
time for bed.

Says the DRL should be H1. DRL are the same as High Beam.

Angel eyes has their own bulb. and i never seen HIDNY's Angel Eyes so i dunno if itll throw codes, last long, or real bright. AIB's and i have Mtech V2's which arnt bad.

The Fog on my 05 is non projectile but i am not sure how it is in all X5' i am pretty sure its not project and you can buy DEPO OM projectors for it though on ebay.

I RECOMMEND DO NOT BUY.....FROM HIDNY...you can ask any memember from here that has purchased any thing from that company and nothing is good...I purchased angel eye led bulbs they lasted 4 months they did replace it but it burnt out a few months later. I bought every L.E.D bulb for my x5 thats like 20 or so bulbs im not kidding i have one still going and thats the licsense plate bulb..they all failed....But thats only me buyer beware...the company is off queens blvd on a side road i went in to see for me self.What a joke!!!!

DDMtuning.com....worth every penny.

They're just as good, if not better, than any aftermarket kit out there. Plus their kits come with a lifetime guarantee. I've had these in my girlfriends car for over a year and they're reliable. Have not had one issue at all since installing them.

I got the HIDNY Digital Ballast and no codes no issues what so ever, but i did take a look at their other things like the Angel eye bulbs and those def did not look promising. So far the Ballast are holding up for half a year now and still no issues.

Btw whats the address, i wana take a look on google maps where its at... and it says there in elmhurst which i am near!
