I just got an 03 M3, I got it from a dealer who bought it at an auction and I noticed the previous owner installed angel eyes, but it seems to be missing an inline fuse (hopefully that is all that is wrong), could someone tell me who makes these and what fuse should go here? Sorry pic of relay is kind of dark.

20amp fuse will do the trick.

Well, that didn't seem to do the trick. I have power (tested with multimeter). I tested the relay and it is clicking when I turn on the parking lights, and I powered the eyes directly from the battery and they lit up fine, but with everything hooked up they don't come on. Any ideas on what else I could try? I am out of ideas.

Ahhh...fixed it. I removed the relay cover and the contact was extremely corroded, so I put some contact cleaner on it and seems to be working well now. Off topic..As a bonus while troubleshooting this I found an Ipod hookup in the glove box that the dealer must not have known about, but was a sweet surprise for me....and it works great!

Where are you getting the 12v power source from? (which wire has been tapped into)

And you might want to consider a different location for the relay - that one has been seeing a lot of water.. a dryer or more protected spot would be a good idea.
