Will advise you not to DIY if you are not confident....very risky! I dont DIY anything on my Car engine/Wiring parts even if am 80% confident...unless you are 100% confident and you know what to do then DIY is good.
But in Penang, i dont know any...but in KL...alot.

I have been keeping a watch on the Z4 forums worldwide. So far I have only found one posting of someone who managed to install angel eyes on his E85 head lamps. It involves splitting the lamp and cover, gluing the rings and re-gluing the cover. If not done properly, it can be ugly and/or worse, it may leak.
I have done this with CCFL rings on my E46 some time ago and it was well done cos it was easy to split the headlamp, just clips and no glue. But others had issues with warning and ballast.
There are members of this forum who have done it on their rides but I have never seen one on a Z4.
There are aftermarket headlamp units with integral angel eyes. These are straight out with old and in with the new. No cutting, splitting and glueing. I did not go down this path because, the most common version moves the signal lights which is normally at the bottom to a position above the lights within the lamp assembly. Goggle it and there is someone selling it on lelong. http://www.lelong.com.my/bmw-z4-cry...ousing-lklailai2-116755714-2012-10-Sale-P.htm
There is only one version that retains the signal lights but there is no local source.
