Here are a couple pics of some angel eyes I dissected from a 2001 5 series headlight.

A couple cool suprises while taking these from the housing.

The cables are fiber optic and have their own light source via a small 5w bulb that feed 5 (yes five!) fiber optics. 2 go to each ring which is made of plastic, and 1 goes to the parking light.

The first pic are the two rings:



The second pic shows the ends of the fiber optics:



Next step is to disassemble a E36 Euro housing to see if it will fit.

Wish me luck!
