Anegel Eye/Halo Upgrades

arakele · 03-05-2008, 06:43 PM

I am sure you guys are sick of these threads.. however I am more of a performance guy vs visual.

With that being said the stock AE's suck in the yellowish color and I have been looking at upgrades for it.

I see all these different LUX versions (it's greek to me except that 5.0 seems to be the newest one) and there are folks running PIAA.

I am not really looking for the brightest out there, I just want the AE's to emit white light, not blue or factory yellow..

what would be my best option? I will be installing these when I get my M-TECH front back from paint. I looked over the LUX install guide and it seems pretty straight forward, suggestions and opinions with pics anyone?

Thanks

We have the MYCARR LED Angel Eye upgrade on our site, here's some installed pictures:

Kits are very easy to install and have a lifetime warranty.

Having seen Lux2-5 all in person. If you dont want any hint of blue at all in your angel eyes, lux 5 should probably be your best bet.

I had Brex on my car and switched to the PIAA because it wasn't so bright.

Brex was slightly brighter then stock and it was white.

I still have them and willing to sell for $100 shipped obo.

let me know

pics of the brex? otherwise lux 5.0 may be my best option.

If you are looking for a pure white output, I'd recommend the Predator ICE E90.

These are designed to be a purely color change upgrade, not flood the headlight with excessive brightness and color. Here is a shot to give you an idea:

will the Predator ICE E90 work for the E92?

PIAA on the left, LUX 4.0 on the right

e92 uses an H8 bulb, it's different than the e90 setups.
