Yes, the LED's should never die under the life of the car, they are rated at likr 50,000 hours or some ridiculously amount like that....

Yes the do look blurry - Reason being - they are too bright for the camera to accurately portray the light... seriously. If you look at some of the other pics of the LUX 3 vs LUX 4 you can see thr brightness difference.

IN person the Rings are NOT blurry at all, and if anything they are bright enough that you can not see the individual lines in the back of the angel eyes. Even durring the daytime in direct sunlight you can see the angel eyes, but at dusk - night is the best time for these!

This picture i would say is the most accurate for showing the brightness and color difference between LUX 4 and Stock

I believe you Marc.
I've taken pics of my Lux 1 and experienced the same problem.

Easy easy big fellow... I recall you mentioning that you were posting pics
of an install you were doing this weekend.

But no worries, I'm a believer. just undecided about getting lux 3
from someone or buying lux 4.

Anyone wants my Lux 1? Collectible item now

Here are my pics of the LUX 4.0.

Let me say this. Pictures do not show how AWESOME these LUX 4.0's are.

The second pic from the last shows the car on the left with the 3.0 and my car on the right with the 4.0. In person you can really see the difference in brightness. And the 4.0 are more white.

you snooze you lose, guys. I'm sure Marc tries his best to make the kits, but this is not like his full-time job, there may be other priorities in his life that could take precedent over this in the future. If you want it, seize this opportunity and get it now, don't wait and later.

I don't understand how much brighter these things are going to get.
They're not supposed to be normal driving lights for pete's sake.

It reminds me of Airplane 2 when you see a poster of Rocky 39.
I can see it now--Lux 39, as bright as the sun.

why not? the E92 uses their angels as driving lights, why can't the E90s do as well?

lux is not meant to illuminate your steets...obviously??..but this mod does two things...

1. to change your angel eyes' color, the more bright it gets, the whiter it is
2. to make your xenons look more-blueish



i love my lux 4s
