Put a small list together:

SPEC-D:

Spec-D® LHP-X500JM-TM - BMW X5 2003 Black Halo Projector Headlights with LEDs

LHP-X500JM-TM (perhaps same thing as SPEC-D):

LHP-X500JM-TM JY Projector Headlights - Black at Andy's Auto Sport

Picture of this obscure unit on E53 post #23:

Here, they offer the LHP-X500JM-TM-HID, which looks to be the same as LHP-X500JM-TM but includes a xenon bulb, ballast, and wiring kit:

SPEC-D LHP-X500JM-TM-HID- a strong black color, projector, 4 stars review, hid xenon bulb and led halos

With the Depo kit, it costs more but includes a lot. And the style of the assembly looks pleasing, and not as "flashy" (perhaps that's not even a good descriptor) as the others I mentioned above:

Depo 2000 03 BMW E53 x5 UHP LED Halo Xenon HID D2S Headlight Auto Level CCFL | eBay

And I believe you can get the Depo units from this seller:

I've yet to locate a picture of SPEC-D:

Spec-D® LHP-X500JM-TM - BMW X5 2003 Black Halo Projector Headlights with LEDs

or YJ LHP-X500JM-TM:

LHP-X500JM-TM JY Projector Headlights - Black at Andy's Auto Sport

on a E53. Maybe no picture exists! :)

I'm led to believe YJ and SPEC-D are the same.

Here, they offer the LHP-X500JM-TM-HID, which looks to be the same as LHP-X500JM-TM but includes a xenon bulb, ballast, and wiring kit:

SPEC-D LHP-X500JM-TM-HID- a strong black color, projector, 4 stars review, hid xenon bulb and led halos

There appears to be another style as well, sold by vipmotoz on ebay:

01 03 BMW E53 x5 Black L R Halo Projector Headlamp Smoke Red LED Tail Lamp | eBay

Anyone here have any idea what that product is / or how it performs? It says in the listing that you can re-use factory xenon bulbs into it.

With the Depo kit, it costs more but includes a lot. And the style of the assembly looks pleasing, and not as "flashy" (perhaps that's not even a good descriptor) as the others I mentioned above:

Unless someone has an alternate vendor, I can only find the Depo kit on ebay, which is interesting I suppose.

Those Spec-D and the Spyder headlights you showed from Ebay are both horrendous not only in looks but lighting performance.

The Depo solution sold by fishcake321 is the most comparable and highest quality pre-facelift solution offered, unless you go custom with a set of Depo halogen versions and retrofit your own xenon projector and LED rings
