JT///M5 actually met up with the vendor about a week, maybe 2 weeks ago, they tried it out and unfortunately it didn't work. Something about the switchbacks not compatible with the way the E60 is setup to flash. However JT did say they were the brightest LED bulbs he's had on his car

Switchbacks aren't required for the E60 front corner turn signals so any non-switchback LED bulb would work. I asked the seller to see if he could get us some non-switchback amber bulbs in the same style/design as he had which would be VERY bright IMO, since with the switch back bulb with only 1/2 of the LEDs lit, was lighting up much noticeably brighter than the 45 SMD LED ebay bulbs I had in the car. I can only imagine how much brighter those bulbs would be if all the LEDs lit up. Hopefully I'll have something to report back in a few weeks.
