Thanks for the comment Phil,,,,,,,,,,,,kind of looks like I am going that route unless someone who has done it,,,or knows that it can be done. The OEM LED's are brighter than the LUX, BUT if it can't be retro,,,than it's worthless...

The Dinan tunes I've had and currently run are great. But in my applications I couldn't run just a stand alone tune. I think in most situations Dinan mods are best when done as some kind of package. Especially if you expect any noticeable gains.........Phil

Maybe with your "M" you needed more than just a tune,,,however,,,they show, and I got a guarantee from Dinan that if I didn't like the tune,,they would flash it back to stock,,,,BTW they say I will get 96HP and 103lb-ft. sounds like a good deal,,,,,it really doesn't seem that far fetched to expect those type of gains with a tt....that would make it.. Peak HP495 hp @ 5000 rpmPeak Torque573 ft-lbs @ 3500 rpm |

I got my LUX units today. I have seen the new X5 LED's in person and they are indeed quite bright and brighter than the LUX. But that being said they are still nice. I took some before and after photos. It's hard for the camera to do them justice...but the rings are brighter than stock. (sorry photos are crappy). I had some trouble with the connectors at first and the lights not working but got that resolved.

I've yet to see a successful OEM retro fit. In the mean time I have the Racing Dash LED Conversion for your E70 available HERE. Below is a side by side of the OEM vs the Racing Dash LED.
