Wow Rick, what an awesome looking E39 :drool: :praise::bravo::praise:

Headlight wise, my 525i has the halogen angel eyes, they came standard on the 2002 models and I think either the higher-end or 2003 models came with Xenon kits.

I'm looking at buying a Xenon set for my car, so you're more than welcome to grab mine. Just not sure if you want halogens though? If you in CT, get hold of me, I feel an epic photoshoot coming along ;)

I think we should do a photo shoot, would be awesome.

I have genuine rear lights and genuine sides, but the fronts I would have to buy aftermarket, are yours the white indicator?

I've got the (I think) facelift style front and back headlights, similar to the M5 style headlights.

Epic Ride there Rick! Yea the Angel Eye headlights, along with the LED rear lights came out from 2001, along with new steering wheels and the wide-screen tv, like yours (how easy was the install?) as opposed to the optional 4x3 screen and tape deck. If I'm not mistaken, the E39 was the 1st BMW to have angel eyes. Could be wrong... May I suggest a really bizarre but worth-every-penny upgrade to the soft valour carpets. They look awesome and make the interior feel even more luxurious. Also very comfy on the feet, if you're like me and like to drive barefoot whenever the opportunity arises. :rollsmile: FYI, for AE light cluster upgrades, consider calling Hella SA. They will import and deliver to your door. I paid R2850 ex vat for a new Hella OEM angel eye headlight to replace my internally busted one. Steeler will whip you R6K+ for one. Not sure how much rear clusters will be.

Enjoy! :thumbs:
