The ones listed are pretty much the only option for those of us with halogen lights. And they are LEDs.

I have been using all 3 types for almost a year now and I have had NO issues. I honestly have not found anything better.

The brightness through the day os ok but in the bright sun, well thats a different story. The ones listed are the same, just different sellers, your choice who to purchase from.

I put these angel eyes in my '11 328i with halogens and I think they look alot better than the old yellowish bulbs. No errors so far and we will
see how long they last.

They never failed up until I sold the car. I did pull them and sold the xomplete set I had,

You should have no problem, besides, they are quite inexpensive compared to other light sold here so to me it would be no big deal to get these,

Matrix I have the same car as you with the same stock halogen headlights.. I was thinking of getting two pairs of the h7 8500k gp thunders and the 8500k h8 fogs.. Now, there is a separate bulb for the angel eye rings? cuz I was going to get the e90 lci halogen lux angel eyes. I'm confused if I need just the gp thunders or both or???

You need:

- two pairs of h7 for low beam and high beam
- one pair of h8 (confirm if it's h11 instead) for fogs
- one pair of lux LCI halogen for angel eyes

If you have stock halogens made by Valeo, that kit labeled H8 won't work as plug and play. I have been doing a lot of reading in the forums and on vendor sites.

Question

hi i am new here, i want to know what is the rating for the factory AE's bulb, is it 10watt per bulb? i have 328i e90 2011 halogen and on the part it say H10W so i thought it would be 10watt

since the one that matrix post is 6watt per bulb (3 for each led) and i am planning to buy 10watt per bulb, i am just afraid that it will produce error message or damage the wiring.

i was planning to get this one for my AE's bulb http://www.ebay.com/itm/220953001231...ht_3064wt_1271

will it be okay if i use the 10watt bulb?

thanks for your attention

Hey just a quick question. What brand of AE Halogens do I purchase in the setup that Matrix has? I managed to locate the fog lights and headlamps on ebay, but not sure which AE bulb to purchase. They primarily have 10W and 6W's. Since I'm a bit of a newbie not entirely sure what the difference is. Thanks!
