(My 7 yr. old is operating the lights makes for some humorous bits) I actually made the mod in effort to prepare for using LED lamps for brake: by keeping the Incan brake filament of the 1157 lamp I don't need to add a wasteful resistor kind of defeats the purpose of the efficiency of LED when you add a resistor to waste 100% of that saved power in the form of heat. My e53 is an '01 but the previous owner replaced the stock taillights with 2012 design (maybe to have the clear top lens)? Worked to my benefit for sure: far more complicated to have to split the circuit for the brake filament on the stock assembly like my wife's x5. The whole brake light upgrade snowballed from what I thought was just a simple lamp replacement on her 2001 x5. Sent from my awrPhone using Tapatalk

Ordered a set of Nt555's from Nitto Tire|4WO. Had good experience with the Motivo so I went with another Nitto but this time I chose their UHP summer tire. Let's see if I will enjoy a spirited drive with these tires.

Put a new battery in today. What a pita spot for a such heavy battery.

Changed the oil, flushed and bled the PS fluid because it seemed iffy since the rack replacement, and recharged AC because it wasn't as strong as I was used to in my e65.

That's really not out of the ordinary for BMW in my experience.
