What is the brightest high-beam bulbs for E90 LCI Xenon headlights?

codeterrorist · 12-10-2024, 10:47 PM

As the title says, I'm looking to upgrade my E90 LCI Xenon headlight high-beam bulbs to the brightest most blinding ones out there.

I don't use high-beam lights at all, but I'm looking to teach those @@holes that drive with high-beam and fog lights at night a lesson.

I want them to feel like they died and saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
I'm sick of being blinded by those stupidly aimed aftermarket and even OEM ones, and they turn every single freaken light in their cars like it's some kind of a contest.

I saw this the other day

You can clearly see how those idiots turn off their high-beam right after being flashed.

It is not worse it.

Those who switch off (high beams on flash) are honest and likely mistakenly forget.

In urban areas where I leave most who use high beams are even not aware how car controls work ...

I have automatic high beams and it does not respond 100% to oncoming traffic.
However, I noticed if upcoming car flash their highs for me, the FLA instantly responds to request.

Not going to get super bright light with those stock projector bowls. But if you want dropin better lighting check out the Bargain Bin at Lightwerkz global. I've bought a few pairs from them and have zero complaints. I usually go with the OSRAM Nightbreaker Laser.

Thanks for the link. So for best result, the projector lenses have to be swapped. Ok.

And yes, I would agree to a certain degree that some might not know where is the switch for the headlight. But most do.
And for those who don't know, it might trigger their reptile brain to realise they get flashed many times at night and might start wondering and eventually figure it out.
