That was my point, and I dont know why they stated that it was
1- for Pre-LCI
2- Xenon units only.

Well may be they are not aware of the fact that those can go into lci halogen headlights too.

are all these for pre-lci's?

i thought all the decent/ bright versions (visible in daylight) were very expensive - but those mtech ones arent bad at £70

why are lux v5.1 so expensive compared to these? :s

I have the MTEC V3s on my Pre-LCI Xenon/Halos. Colour is the same as the Xenon light and give out an extremely crisp/clean white light. Get them you won't be disappointed.

Look like Weisslicht.. Lots use them and simply rebadge them. They give a bluer output (6.5k) which doesn't match the Xenon output. MTECs are in another league, IMHO with build quality/cooling and output.
