08 E70 X5 Headlights

Trying to get this exact bright blue look for my 08 x5:

Hamann Tycoon Evo M - BMW X6 M - walk around and loud acceleration - YouTube

-I only have lux v3, only part that I changed. Thinking on getting v4's setting them on 12k
-buy these http://www.bimmian.com/WeissLicht-LE...for-BMW-E70-X5
-and these http://www.bimmian.com/HID-Retrofit-Kit-for-BMW-E70-X5

Any advice on achieving the look?

Your post made no sense to me at all, maybe try explaining better with less part numbers what you want.

The tycoon headlights have blue glow, I want to make my x5 have exact color light output (glow) as the tycoon in the video and also match the fogs to the headlights. What bulbs do I need? the links I added are what I'm thinking on buying, I'm unsure if it will achieve the look.

You know the 'blue glow' is dumb, right?

I mean originally the market shifted to whiter lights- which, when compared to sunlight, has a slight blue color...but the aftermarket, with buyers who are pretty unsophisticated, just kept marching to "who can make the bluest light"...and now people actually think blue is cool.

The very best lighting systems do not have blue lights- only these oddball aftermarket setups trying to attract ricer crowds.

But hey, good luck

i think the white illumination looks a lot cleaner

i went with these
WeissLicht LED Turn Signal Bulbs For E70 - BMW X5 and X5M SAV - 2007-2013 From bimmian.com
WeissLicht LED Halo Upgrade Kit For E70 - BMW X5 and X5M SAV - 2007-2013 From bimmian.com
WeissLicht LED License Plate Illumination Upgrade For E70 - BMW X5 and X5M SAV - 2007-2013 From bimmian.com

and they just released these for fogs..
WeissLicht LED Fog Light Bulbs For E70 - BMW X5 and X5M SAV - 2007-2013 From bimmian.com

i switched mine all out simply cuz the stock Angel eyes are crap and i hate orange on the vehicle so clear with white illumination was very clean IMO

i just have to grab those fogs and find some LED's for the side markers and i'm all matching
