I found this by coincidence now...
http://<div class="youtube-playerCon.../iframe></div>" rel="ugc" target="_blank">http://<a href="http://<div class="y...ame></div></a> I had noooo idea at all that BMW has Halogens available on the X5! This is soooooo "Old Fashioned" Thoughts? P.S. Sorry for the bad quality pics Edit: They weren't even available on the E70 and they make it available on the F15!

Good catch. But in some markets vehicles are less equipped standard than what we see and reprieve from marketing and sales.

here in USA the LEDs are dumbed down and are not adaptive (local laws) so the Xenons are a good alternative as they put out as much as or more light than the LEDs

Also keep in mind that our lights are adaptive but not anti dazzled like the European versions. Adpative meaning the headlights turn in with the directions of your steering along with adaptive high beam lights if you have that option. |

Now that a coding solution is available for the anti-dazzle of the US spec LEDs i wish I ordering them. I sold a 2007 Volvo XC70 so needless to say I am very happy with the upgrade from halognes (stone age) even if I only have Xenons

If you are unsure, get someone to drive your LED equipped X5 while you drive something else and follow them at night and see how much light these LED's put off. |

Yes, I knew that the Xenons are adaptive as well, I was just responding to Wjbender about LED were dumbed down and not adaptive but I'm pretty sure he meant anti-dazzle instead.

There has to be a huge reason for me to ever go back to Xenons. Once you drive LEDs you realize what you've been missing. The markers, road signs, lane dividers, the little reflector on a headphone that guy is wearing when he is running all shine back like never before. Not to mention the LED turn signals, so bright and distinctive. The next best thing is LED aftermarket signals that opasha did a write up on (requires coding).
