GP Thunder vs OEM

jibatou · 08-20-2012, 01:41 AM

First post. Got the GP Thunder bulbs, and took some pics with a friend.
For $16 or however little they cost, the color change is decent. But the lack of lighting on the outer rings, and that they turn yellowish when the lowbeams are on are a detraction.

GP Thunder 7500K vs. 8500K?

looks really nice!!

Code the amber out and you are good to go.

i just put mine one. coded out the ambers, and coded voltage increase (slightly). honestly compared to some of the pictures i've seen of lux', these are really good. i can't justify spending over $200 on some light bulbs, but these are an awesome alternative. (i have 7500k). i'll snap a photo and post on here tonight.

I should have clarified in the title that this is about Angel Eyes
For whoever asked, they are 8500K
