You might already be aware, but putting LED bulbs in your halogen X5 corona setup will never come close to looking like those in your 320i, unfortunately.

truth, the E9X M3's all have such halogen halo lights, no matter which bulb you use, it'll never replicate a true LED lighting system.

On my M3, I tried a few bulbs, got sick them as they actually look invisible in daytime b/c their light temps match sunlight and OEM lighting system isn't set up for higher energy output. I then decided to go back to halogens, at least on my car, they look pretty unique as not many pre-LCI BMWs have M3 style halos
