LUX is the best!!

Just wanted to thank LUX for their great aftersales service. Bought a pair of LUX V3 H8 upgrade about 10 months ago. One of them failed and after contacting LUX I received a replacement within 10 days in Australia! And no questions asked!

These lights are still the best and brightest PnP angel lights for your BMW.

Thanks LUX!!

I saw a set on an lci e90 tonight. Man they are bright. I saw other brands and they couldn't come close. I just ordered LCI lights. I will definitely go with LUX. They made me change my mind about doing an OSS set up with umnitza rings. You can't replace quality customer service either.

After initially thinking Lux was just a fad here, a ton of research later proved me wrong.

i purchased a set directly from him and haven't a regret at all. fast and prompt email responses as well as shipping. The Angel Eyes look friggin awesome as well, way better than my expectations and quality is top notch. The heatsink looks like its plastic in the pictures but its nicely crafted solid piece of aluminum. +1 for lux.

One of mine went out within three months. They want me to send it back for repairs. How come no red carpet treatment for US customers?

Did he say he would charge you? Couldn't be more than a $5 or so to ship it back. I'm quite certain that will be your only cost.

I have yet to hear back from them. It's weird they have time to respond to these threads but not to customers.

How is the light strength balanced between the two eyes? Are they of equal brightness? During the day? Sorry for so many questions and thread jacking lol

I tried both and alpine is brighter but lux is more balanced. Oncoming traffic will think you have high beams on with alpine, that's why I'm using lux now.

Well, at night, its very bright and even. During the day its bright, but less even. Its very bright, btw. Nice overwhelming at all, just nice. Its probably the best choice for brightness/eveness you can get, but comes with the cons of what my next quote says....

too bad i was late to the meet last thursday but there are a couple LCI's running lux around our area.

I parked next to my friend with V3's for side by side comparison to my V1's and they're 95% identical. distribution, output are the same.

Do people flash their high-beams at you? They're that bright ?!
