I'll post more pics later on in the week :)

HAWT!! Any 'during' pics?

Picture of ECU. Here I tapped into the accessory power supply. This is what makes the angel eyes light up when the key is turn to position 2.

I used siliconII (operating temperature up to 400F) to glue on the angel eyes.

I also have a video of the angel eyes lighting up when I unlock the car and dimming when I lock the car. I'll get that up once google video approves my vid. Merry Christmas everyone!

Very nice, thanks for the pics. Maybe I'll do this someday, but I think I have the standard headlamps.

Your car looks great!

how many different sites did you post this on?3 so far from what I can tell...

So? I don't tend to frequent other BMW/car sites, and this post was quite pertinent to the subject matter of X5World. I am glad he did post it here.:thumbup:

Then I'd say you are missing out on a lot of information. The time to check the other sites is worth it. :thumbup:

i say..does it really matter? :wow:
