Lawrence,
Instead of a PM, the CCFL to LED angel eyes upgrade is applicable to many platforms so replying here.

ECSTuning offers this kit to upgrade the AEs, normally costs $80 and currently on sale for $50, arrived in 2 days. It's very simple (and had to be because they forgot to include the installation instructions), you remove the light source from the back of the headlight housing (a simple twist & turn) and screw the new one in. They also include the correct wiring pigtail to connect this new LED light source to the existing waiting harness.

It took me longer to type this note than to upgrade the AEs.

I must be doing something wrong on my search for the LEDs and can't seem to find them for the E39. Could you post the URL? If on sale at $50 for the 4 AEs, that is a great price. It is for 4 LEDs, right?

And yes, the 2 LED light sources included in this kit powered up my 4 AEs.

Got it. Ordered. Thanks. The 530i will look great from the LEDs.

Ordered a programmable OEM key today, car came with just the valet key. Also started replacing the front bumper pork chops, but had to delay to attend my son's high school graduation party (fun, he's done, now the college bills stack up) so will finish that bit of CM up tomorrow.
