I don't know about yours but mine came with this whole harness with a relay that's supposed to be hooked up to the battery and plug into the back of the headlights, I don't know what it's supposed to be for but I know my angel eyes and headlights all worked fine without it
Ya, mine came with the same harness. It's part of the wiring kit if installing in a Euro model I was told by the seller.

Thanks for the fuse panel mention. Can you take a pic of the area you are describing please?

BTW, I did install the Depos this last weekend and the while the HIDs are not as bright as my 540it, they are a significant improvement over my Depo projectors. the installed bulbs are 6000k, I may look for 4500ks as the 6000k are still a bit bluish for my liking. Looks good, but I think the 4500ks put out a more effective light. Anyway, I'm happy with them they will be cooler when the AEs get hooked up to ignition power. I'll wait to check the color of the AEs before I consider a bulb swap.

Thanks Brendan for your tip again! Rich
