BMR Angel Eyes: Feedback

First off - let me say the result is fantastic. Sorry for no pics (refer pictures on BMR's website, result is the same). Yes the outer ring doesn't glow as bright as the inner, but the OEM yellow AE's were just the same.

Result is a really bright white with a small tinge of blue. I think they are 6500 Stu?

Install into an LCI 335 E90 was.....tricky but also easy at the same time. Trick is to remove the small tab off the plastic dowel near the globe. Then the (considerably) larger heatsink will fit. Once you know to do this, its a 2 minute job for the passenger side.

Drivers side is, well, about 20 minutes of frustration (due to the horns being in the way) until your next door neighbour pops in and takes less than 15 seconds. True story.

Great result as everyone who has done this knows. Hopefully this helps other E90 owners ---- slide the tab off!!!

I've got BMR AEs in my car - very good. (And I even used to run Lux before!)

Glad that you're pleased with them!!

Unfortunately E90s are probably the hardest vehicle to install into.
