Lux 5.0 Pics & Install

micah · 03-19-2009, 05:06 PM

Yes, the Angel Eyes are driven off of a separate bulb than the headlights. This thread is about replacing the halogen AE bulbs with a customized LED bulb that is brighter and whiter than stock. The stocks are fairly yellow (sallow and jaundiced). Lux 5.0 is the version of this custom bulb that is whitish, and Lux 4.5 is a similarly bright bulb that is a bit bluer. I believe Lux 5.0 was developed to match the color temperature of the stock xenon headlights.

If you want to buy these bulbs, you may do so at NAMOTORSPORTS.NET. There is another thread in the sponsors section where these bulbs are up for sale: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=231775

sorry, no the LUX right now only works with the 06-09 PRE Lci model e90 sedans.
I am working on something to work for the Coupes, the LCI Xenons, the new 5 series, the 1 series, etc.

this is not the same as 09 lcis right? LCI can be accessed by removing the warranty decal under the hood?
