Shouldnt throw a code, these things are on a M3 and alot of other e92s should be A+++...the install should be like installing the stock bulbs, not much of a difference as far as how they look in the pic

chrisE92 · 02-21-2008, 10:59 AM

i would think that the installation process is a little different? the PIAA bulbs have that Y shape

true i was thinking that ..i was wondering how it will fit in that little area ..long can u shed some light?

mds82 · 02-21-2008, 12:04 PM

Can someone do a Pshop comparing 2 cars, one with the PIAA, one with the GPThnunder??

I think that could be a good test

i think you just squeeze the 2 arms of the Y together, i bet they are spring loaded

dbtran · 02-21-2008, 12:57 PM

Any pictures with the HIDs on?

remmib · 02-21-2008, 01:13 PM

Long's the man, great news for the E92 guys

mds82 is the quest for e92 lux over

skim7x · 02-21-2008, 10:28 PM

it's so hard to see the difference between these and GP Thunders... especially since the exposure on every picture I've seen on this thread is different... =/ I've seen pictures of GP Thunders that LOOK as bright as those pictures of the PIAA just because the exposure time was increased... wish I could see them in real life =( *sigh* or if someone would take a pic of the GP Thunders vs PIAA together in the same shot...

AJayE92 · 02-22-2008, 07:36 AM

yeah idk if this is worth the $$ right now. How attainable is this to you long if i change my mind/

Good question. I did my own little experiment with this. I took a small LED flexible flashlight and pointed it straight through to the outer ring entry point. It was a very solid light, but not very bright. I was thinking this method may be a good way to go (as an H8 of course). Here is a pic of what I used.

Can you or someone else explain why it should be equal? The flaw of the entire E92 angel eye design is that the light source is closer to the inner ring, thus leaving the outer one more dim. How does the PIAA system balance this out?
