Looks great, I'll wait for the competition though....

[brian32e]

man that is nice. wonder what it looks like with the low-beam xenons on too. any pictures of that?

[One-Way]

But is it something people with angel eyes ADD ON or is it something I can get for my car, which doesn't have angel eyes?

you need angel eyes. you basically swap out the thing that lights up your angel eyes (not just the bulb, because i've tried out every single bulb that fits and it was way too dark).

I don't have pics with the low beam on. If it ever comes up i'll link it.
Considering how it looks, i might actually get one myself

[poldim]

did you take any pics while trying, what did you take apart to get to the fitting?

[yujini]

oh, that's not my car. lol
But I know how to get to it. it's fairly easy.
Almost as easy as replacing the fog light.

[poldim]

Care to elaborate?

[thd13]

That last pic is nice! It's exactly what I've been looking for.

it's easy, but hard to explain by words.
What the Brex white ring does is replace the entire bulb+housing.
I guess that's why it's 200 instead of teh bulb cost which should be around 40-50 bux.

im gonna have to agree with Tova on this one. the white/blue rings do look cool when the xenons arent on, but it doesnt provide the sharp contrast when the xenons are on. i also think the white angels will look awkward esp. with US e90s, because the ugly orange blinkers light up too when you turn on parking lights. now, if only there is a way to disable them.....

I wish I had the time and place to take the wheels off and crawl around there...

By the way, it's the same for the 5 series and the X5.
Brex sells these kits for both 3 and 5 series (e90, e60).
I don't think anyone else has a solution for the 3,5,X5 series as of yet, so it seems like a pretty difficult job to light up the angel eyes.
My friend changed just the bulb, and as you can see in the photo forum where someone changed just the bulb, you can barely see it
cause it's too dark.

[poldim]

Anyone know where to get some up close pics of the Brex kit? Or anyone thats getting it, can you take some....

[nine4surfah]

Ouch! $200 for light bulbs? That's a whole lot fo change for non HID bulbs.

[poldim]

HID's go for 215 shipped to HT.


Now that would be a sick retrofit...





:rocks:

[joony79]

I guess the question is whether it looks good with the amber signal light or not... especially for us in the States... because we cannot have the clear signal lights like some members do... But! I'd love so much to change mine to the Brex angel eyes and also change my foglights to HIDs... only if I have the clear signals...

I want to try these:




And I've got yellow HID's for fogs on order.

[yujini]

As strange it may seem, this is the brex e90 kit.
Looks different than the e60 kit.



I'm trying to first replace my xenon bulbs before I get the brex kit.
Anyone know if I can just get a pair of D1S bulbs and just stick em in?
All I know is I have to take off the front bumper to remove the original bulbs.

This is the brex white ring kit for the e60


and it looks like this

[lux.sh]

whoa, yujini, you got the Brex kit???

한국에서 얼마에요??

[yujini]

nope, didn't get it yet. I'm still considering it.
I'm worried that if I change the angel eyes, I'll be tempted to
change the xenon lights to 6000~6500k.

If I order it from Japan, it costs about 210 bux. (21만원이요 ^^)
In Japan it's 21,000 yen (including tax).

[lux.sh]

dang. If you do decide to get it, let us know how it goes.
21만원 is quite a bit for angel eye conversion... ^^;;;;

I think you would want to upgrade the xenons though, to match the extremely white angel eyes. Stock xenons will look yellow compared to the white angel eyes.
