Hello everyone

My names Dan and just recently purchased a Toledo Blue 3.0D, its a 2004 facelift model with towbar (ugly)

This is my first 4x4 as I am used to smaller cars!  My other car is a Focus RS Mk1 which is currently in the garage being prepped for track days this year.

I must say that I love the X5!  Been after one for years!

Car seems to be behaving itself at the moment but there are a few things I want to get done to it!

I have Xenons that require the halo lights to be changed to give them the white ring instead of dirty yellow!
Car will be getting a full machine polish and wax
Full refurb on wheels
Plastics inside wrapped in carbon (if this looks cheap then will be done in black)

I do require the cargo load cover though in black and if anyone knows anyone selling any then please send them my way

Anyway off to read up loads on the car and see what goodies I can treat myself to!

Welcome.

The Halo fix is a simple one, but very few (if any) of the after market options will give you the equivalent brightness of the current LED versions on new BMWs.

I bought a set of LEDS from Hids4u which were straight plug and play and took 5 mins to change both.

Cargo covers are rare, but keep an eye on ebay.

What size LED are required?

Any of these should do the job.  HIDS4U don't have them in stock at present.  I had 5W units in mine and those were early generation ones at about £30 a pair.  You change the whole thing out.  You should be able to find UK kits too.  HIDSDirect is another possible source.
