yes, it's quite nice!
imho it renews a bit the pre-facelift e53 and this is great.

btw, in fact the eyes are not that white, but yellowish and it's perfect since i've put into the turn lamp an yellow bulb (i really like the yellow turning signal) and they perfectly match

thanks!

btw i seems to solved the "sweating" problem of my Depo headlights.
put some silica gel packs inside them and it's 2 days i have clear headlights.

hope my experience will help others, too

this is so nice,
i have an '02 x5 e53, and been wanting to put angel eyes on it.
Just either buy the headlights itself and get someone to put them in, or do it myself. but still not entirely sure if i can yet haha
hopefully it wouldnt be too much to have someone do it

Nice job on yours!

afaik original hella headlights made till '03 can be put into an oven for 10 minutes and then the front part (glass, but it's plastic) is easily removed.

i think you'll find plenty of info on forums

Yes, if you do a search here you will find instructions how to remove your headlights to upgrade them and which aftermarket replacements are simply plug and play.

Removing your particular headlights is easy even if you have very little mechanical aptitude.
