I was just wondering about these cornering lights, I noticed them turning on and off while turning and they looked a bit yellow. I think I will pick up a set of the piaa's. Always been happy with them.

I think most have agreed that the GP Thunders are brighter when it comes to angel eyes. I would only assume the cornering lights are better as well. I am actually going to order a set of the H3's for my car, the GP Thunder 7500k. I already have the GP Thunder 7500 angel eyes bulbs.

If your planning on buying them get them here, very happy with the service so far (ordered two sets from them before).

Umm...I just replaced my old corner lights for H3 MTEC Superwhites 55W...and when I turn the wheel over 15 degrees they don't light up...Could it be because I am testing them out in broad daylight?

Not sure if you guys/gals knew this, but when you have your lights set to auto in the daytime/evening time and you're running your DRL, hitting the fog light button will turn your foglights, and Xenons on

I have 8500k GP for Angel & Corner and i'm still trying to find out if they're the same color LOL. I swear, sometimes i think the Angels are changing colors. I'll check them a couple of different times during the day and one time they'll be a little purple, then later i'll check again and they yellowish (almost like stock) but at night they look bright white!?!?!

I'm still trying to figure out if i like the H3 55w Cornering lights because i haven't had a chance to compare them yet as i just put them in two days ago. I'll keep you posted but i really want to see what the mtech superwhites look like because i can't help but feel that the 8500k GP corners are still a little yellowish. Maybe it's just me but i definitely want to see a comparison.

One thing you can do which I did already is paint your turn signal silver in two coats. Preferably heat resistant one. It gives it clean look and keeps the functionality. Plus at night it isn't as bright so your headlights and coronas stand out better.
