Edit - do you have the OEM ones or the aftermarket? Wondering if the OEMs are better or just more expensive.

Hi,
Yes, that's what they look like in low light, and are even brighter in the dark.
But you won't see them at all in daylight, or much under bright parking lights in a lot.
They are just replacing the plain white puddle lights, and you don't see those unless it's darkish either.
FYI, I've had both AM and OE, and the OEs are definitely better.
They don't get as hot, won't melt or fade the slide that holds the image, and last way longer...
I've had multiple sets of the AMs but once I switched (in my 2008 X5) several years ago, never had one of OEs go bad, they are worth the extra $$s
Also, if you would like a different image (the ///M is classic) for some variety, try these (3 sets of slides only, you need to buy the lights separately) they offer 3 other options...
I have them (using the middle one) and this is the way they look in the dark, bright and very clear, just as in the pictures.
