>> LuxAngelEyes ˃˃ LUX H8 160- 7000K White LED Angel Eyes, 160W equivalent
Once again LUX sets the industry benchmark for LED replacement lighting with our latest product, the LUX H8 160 Angel Eyes . These pure white angel eyes replacements offer a clean updated look to the car closely resembling the newer model cars. The LUX H8 160 angel eyes patented design utilizes 8 Cree LED's offer unmatched brightness to both the inner and outer angel eyes LUX H8 160 angel eyes produce a total of 3200 lumen of pure white 7000k light which is the halogen equivalent of 160 watts! The stock 35 watt halogen bulb receives only 80-90% power and then drops to 50% power when utilized with the headlights; thus causing the angel eyes to become much dimmer. This is done to reduce heat within the headlight housing. Our LUX H8 160 angel eyes compensate for this dimming and always operate at full power allowing them to be clearly visible in the daytime . Our LED bulbs use a fraction of the power allowing them to run cooler and have a longer lifespan. The LUX H8 160 offers the following Features: • Pure white 7000K white light Comparison of LUX H8 V5 - vs - LUX H8 160 LUX H8 V5
LUX H8 160 Product Compatibility: • 1-series and 1M – E82 | (2007-2012)LUX H8 160: $199 + shipping Link to Website Ordering Shipping Costs: USA - $5 Last edited by LuxAngelEyes; 01-01-2016 at 06:22 PM.. |

Whoa.. what the...! Just when I was about to order the Lux V5 for my early 2007 E92, LUX releases these. I guess it makes sense. No one really needs the adjustability of the V5's... most people stick to one color around the 7000K color mark. And looking at the pictures, they are quite noticeably brighter than the V5's.
Hopefully LUX will focus on this new product instead, and release a version for the early 2007 E92s. |

We plan to keep both models actually since a large majority of people prefer the unique adjustable of the V5's. Being able to pick a color that looks best with the car is very important and we see all different color temperatures from people. |

Would you be able to get in some more shots/vids of some of your older versions vs this? Like the v4 vs this in a vid or something. Also some side angles. Probably end up buying if it's a good upgrade from the v4.

Side angles are very deceiving since the outer ring is not visible when you look at it from certain angles. |

That's true but the comparison videos would be a great addition to show off the new lux. Looking forward to seeing them.

Is that 3200 lumen per bulb or total?
In all honesty, this is still probably half as bright as an HID option right? (disregarding the downsides of going HID). |

We did a side by side comparison and a number of people said it was hard to tell the difference between them. So if you go with Either the LUX H8 V5's or the LUX H8 160's you are still getting an amazing product regardless |

The physcial design of the headlights are so much different between the E90 and F30's that you cant compare them to each other. We will work to get a side by side picture, which will be more useful.
