what brand to get on Angel Eyes upgrade

I have been looking through the threads, and I am still confused on what price to look for, and quality, as well as no error codes showing up.
Thanks, please if you would and not direct me to look at another thread, i'd rather have a simple answer as one of you may have a forte in this subject.

I do not think they make them for the E92 but I have been very pleased with my Mtec V2's.

And the difference between h8 and h5(lux 5.1) is that the H8 is for e92 and the 5.1 is for e90's.

However, as for the OP:

Your best bet would be to look at the stickied thread that explains just about every option for upgrading your angels. Most people tend to go for LUX nowadays; i wanted to try something else so I ordered from Alex.

My reasoning for it was, Alex's look brighter, good cus. service, have a pretty decent track record on the forum and are alot cheaper than the LUX's. I dont have them in hand yet, but I am going from what I have read on the forum. LUX also has a great rep on here as well, just dont look as bright(from pics).

However, if you have the money and dont mind shipping your lights off OSS is prob your best bet. Ive seen them in person and they look SICK!

with the HID kits, Yes they will be brighter, however the LUX H8 kit as well as other led angel eyes focus on brightness and equal distribution of light. the LUX H8 keeps the inner and outer ring as bright as possible.
HID kits make the inner ring blindly bright. Theres a thread currently about someone who got pulled over because they were too bright
