It's all done inside the vehicle.
Run one wire from
The back fuse compartment and the other wire from the front fuse box.
Run the wire from the back fuse box and run in down the side of the X in the factory loom trail, once you get to the bottom of the door opening I ran it out and cut the foam in the carpeting as it makes a great way to protect the wire. And run it to the passenger foot well module. Now start on the second wire.
The front wire is just run from the front fuse box and looped down to the passenger side foot well module.
The two wires that you remove from the plugs are the headlight wires. A yellow wire with a blue line and a yellow wire with a green line.
Connect the two wires to the headlight wires and heat shrink them to keep them from pulling apart.
Now just code and your done!
I will populate more pics later.
Also Note! If your model is a 2014 to 2015 you need to source LED headlights from that model year.
In 2016 they updated things so LED headlights from 2016 to 2018 will work with x5's from 2016 to 2018.
If you buy a 2015 headlight and try to fit it to a 2016 or newer model it won't be easy as you will have much more to rewire and I can't help you with that. So please source correct model year headlights for your vehicle.
This is 100% reversible and you can change the car back to stock at any time.
No splicing or cutting of factory wires or running wires into the engine bay.
Please IM me for the contact information to Marius as he will make you a harness and also illustrated instructions showing pins and where to plug them into.
Headlights night off eBay auction. 2018 model year $400 dollars
Coding $100 - varies depending on what you want
Wiring kit. $175 - varies depending on vin.
If you do your own coding this is a pretty cheap mod if you can score a good deal on lights.

Could someone make a more detailed description of the pin out?
It will certainly be useful for many people in the future
