Where are they going to install them? The E63 bumper has no provisions for them

That is true for sure...but I was just commenting that they could be done!

I also suppose a good shop could mount them flush, maybe even lower...though I am not sure the aftermarket bumpers are eve setup for them. I think some smoked lens' on a black 55 would look sweet

Iam, I had to modify the housings to work. You have to dremel out the plastic holder that the halogen bulb fits into and slide the hid bulb through it. Hids will not lock down in the foglamp housing for some reason.

Is this with a 9006? I am trying to find the correct HID replacement size, i'd confirm it myself but my kit is with the body shop. I remember reading the suvneer housing accepts an h7 bulb but now cant find the thread. Maybe i misread and im making this up because obv our OEM is 9006?

Gary's bumper comes with brackets but it is specifically for an E63 sensor which is smaller in size than E55/E500. I just plugged them up for now and disabled my parktronic via star.

I believe people are swapping their old brackets to Gary's bumper. Unfortunately, I can not tell your how hard or easy it is to remove the brackets off of Gary's bumper. Shouldn't be too difficult but idk.
