Just installed Lux H8 160 6500? Anyhow very white, very bright. Couple of things, O ring does not go into the housing seals on outside and my wires were VERY brittle. I have never seen wiring crumble on both sides the way it did. My 60' Falcon has better wires after all these years 1st owner so I know.
If you look at the light pipe it's amazing that amount of light gets through, how it winds around like a big fiber optic in a way. Very happy so far, now will put them in my wife's 09' Z4. |

I'd assume he's talking about the stock wiring. The stock wiring is prone to degrading over time. It doesn't happen to every car though so I'd assume it's related to the conditions the car has been exposed to. High heat, low humidity? Not sure.
If you see any exposed wire, be sure to fix it. There has been more extreme cases then this. |

Angel eyes, like the HPB 240W H8 Angel eyes we offer, have LED specifically located to point towards the optics for brighter angel eyes. If you just put a regular H8 LED in there the light will be shooting all sorts of the wrong way and your angel eyes won't have the best output. You lose a lot of your output putting light where it's not needed basically. |

If you want modern, bright white angel eyes then you have to replace the actual rings in the housing with something like Bavgruppe ones. |

I'm about 5% interested in how bright my angel eyes are and about 95% interested in how evenly the light is distributed between the inner and outer rings.
Whats my best bet for a clean, white, evenly-as-possible-distributed light? Also what is the best option for making the fog lights match the same color light as the angel eyes? The factory fog lights are yellow just like the factory angel eyes. Thanks! LuxAngelEyes

I'm just looking for the best option to suit my preferences without having to do a full blown headlight assembly. Cory S posted earlier in this thread with a bulb that I think looks great, but didn't supply much detail. https://www.e90post.com/forums/showp...5&postcount=33

The lights become more evenly lit, but still not perfect, the further away you view them. |

We have aligned the LED's in the reflector in such a way that it does not overpower the inner ring yet focuses the light to the outer ring. |

Sorry to hear that these have stopped working, but these are some of our very old ones, i would say 6 years old or so? the LUX H8 189 angel eyes we offer now will be well over 2x as bright. We have a link in our signature for these as well.

I run these in the fog lights and no problems there either: https://www.mteclightingusa.com/MTEC...mt-616-h11.htm Since the LUX angel eyes are super white, the fog lights do appear to be just slightly blue in color when directly comparing the two...but they're not any more blue than factory HID headlight bulbs so given that, all three bulbs (stock HID bulb, LUX V7, MTEC 6000k LED fogs) are all a fairly good/even match together. |
