Color changing halos?!

Anyone know of a company that makes a product that can change the color of the OEM halos? I've been searching the forum and online but I've only come across ones that someone personally retrofitted themselves. However I did find 2 for something but I have no idea of anyone's experience with these. I'll link both products below, would love some feedback, ideas, etc!

Easy only had to remove front bumper to get to headlights then simply remove headlight and unscrew stock led module on bottom of light and plug these bad boys in. Then you have to tap a power source and ground the box for the new led modules

Did you have to splice any wires or anything? Sorry if that's a stupid question I'm unfamiliar with electrical installs and all that stuff

Why bc someone wants the option to change the color of their halos ? I mean not everyone wants white or yellow . What's wrong with options in life . Don't be one of those oh it's a bmw so you can't do anything to or your ricing it out . Please save me from that shit . Not any worse than taking a non m car and putting m badges and body parts on it . Do you own a "M" car ?

Hey, the link you attached isn't available anymore. Could you attach a new link of a product close to yours? I would greatly appreciate it!!

If you can get custom headlights, in my opinion do that. Never wanna cheap out on the headlight/visibility department.

Where did you plug them? As soon as you turn the car off do they turn off?

Changing the angel eyes color wouldn't affect visibility, but using emergency vehicle light colors, blue or red, is illegal in most states.
