lol guys lets wait and see how these babys look at night..if they look stunning then its worth 100...

[xxballinboi786]

so out of the 10 sets sold on thursday, no one has pics?!?

[BoostedBMW]

Damn, that's not too impressive if you can see them less then my GP Thunders during the day. I still like my GP lights because even though they are a compromise during the day over stock, I can still see that they are on and at night they look 100 times better then stock. Hopefully the umnitza bulbs will look amazing at night. Lets see some night pics.

When I first tried to install them, they would NOT fit in, no matter how I rotated them. I was able to install the GP Thunders the EXACT same way as the stock ones, so why couldn't these be done the same? Even when they were rotated to match it wasn't the exact same and did not fit. the ONLY way I got them in was to modify that top metal ring that is highlighted in the pictures. They are also pushed in all the way and not halfway out as they would have been without modifying the metal ring.

I'll get some pictures of them tonight.

^ I can imagine how frustrating that must have been since there is no room to fit your fingers in where the angel eye bulbs are. Replacing my stock bulbs with the GP thunders was even a PITA to get it to line up correctly.

[ifaudi]

I can replace the stock and gp thunders on the passenger side which is an even bigger PITA in about 5 minutes. I spent atleast an hour trying to get the predators to fit in before resorting to modifying them

[xxballinboi786]

when you guys install the H8's does the red base part seem to roll out a bit??

[ifaudi]

My modified base:

Notice how the outside angel eyes get very little if any light to them:


Compared to the GP Thunders:

Lol damn..cant u go to a multi floor parking lot or something lol

[schneid4323]

Im just going to ask, Do you have the car on or off? That makes a huge difference and i would suspect that could be the problem especcially with LEDs

[ifaudi]

Pictures in post 84 and 86 were with the car turned on and running. Pictures in 103 were with the car turned off but the start button hit twice and parking lights turned on which in my experience duplicates the same brightness when the car is turned on and running.
