Looks good m8 , however the outer ring looks unlit , i might go all out and buy the luxs as apparently there the closest to oem look ,

As above 3.0sd/35d  is what i personally looked at ,
Bought a 35d in the end the pick up and economy is a marked diffrence especially coming from a 08 q7 ,

Personally i have not taken out any extended warranty, but i do know of someone who has a 2008 x5 sd And has made good use out of his bmw warranty , i do tend to buy used cars with a good set of receipts/history so you know whats been recently replaced and then i usually sell on within the year ...

Cheers will do

Any recommendations on white angel eyes for xenon headlights ,
Barring the luxs and the piaa , has anyone purchased any from ebay etc that they can recommend

As above lci models have white angel eyes and the newer rear lights ,
Also production dates from aug 2010 onwards i believe are all 8 spd ,
