Ok here's my take on headlight work like this.

I used to think it was cool, which it is, but it's definitely not something I would want on my car as it screams aftermarket.

1) The lights look great when on, however when off, I HATE, and I mean absolutely HATE how ugly the yellowish rings appear. (see first pic in first link you gave)

2) Like I said, because of that, they look extremely aftermarket and not my cup of tea.

What is cool I think (but never seen mounted) is a blackout with the rings themselves black. That way when off, the yellowish look doesn't exist and the entire headlight housing is black.


All of that is why I personally went with the Lux (which I think you have). I would have gone V2 rings with no blackout but couldn't bring myself to spend double what I would have or more on the Lux
