Well mine are adaptive and I ordered the e92 20w ones as it is the same for the LCI e90. From the looks of it the adaptive lights are in a separate section and the H8 unit will not be in a way/will not affect the adaptivity. And you are right as far as Kelvin being a temperature, not brightness, but we all know what he meant. Would help to change it to make site look more professional. Hope someone else can chime in.

The marker name put me off as well when ordering, I even went back and double checked a few times that I chose the right stuff as it is hard to tell in the basket what you did...

LED Marker http://www.bmwled.net/one-pair-e92-20watts-led-marker and Angel Eye's Marker http://www.bmwled.net/e92-led-angel-eyes-marker Which one should I be buying if I only want to change my AEs? EDIT: The LED Markers are H8 and 20w. The Angel Eye Markers are unlisted wattage and not H8? Someone clarify please.

Interesting.. I bought my angel eye bulbs on eBay (they were from BMWLED.net) for my LCI e90 last July, and the company doesn't even have them on their site? All I know is that I am not happy at all with the quality of the bulb. I understand that the outside ring doesn't like up as much as the inner ring, but my outer ring is almost non-existent. I've driven over 13,000 miles since I installed them so at least they are pretty reliable for the $60. When they go out I've been telling myself that I am going to get LUX since I don't want to drop $800 and have my headlights taken apart.

Update: ordered the 20w kit three days ago and it came in today. Mail man lost it in the truck though and had to come back at the end of the day. The install is pretty easy, it took me about 20 min per side with my XXL bear claws, did leave some blood on the housing though lol. Below are the pictures during and after. I am very pleased with the result. One thing to mention for easier install it it helps to take the wires off the post. If you look inside the housing, the wires that go from the H8 are bunched up and sit on the post just below the socket. I could not lign up/position properly the bulb until I pulled the wires off the post(just pull towards the front of the car, comes right off, they will just hang there). Will see how they hold up, love so far, did I mention that? Let me know what you think.

Shame it took this long for someone to start selling these cheaply. They've been colossally overpriced and poorly designed from the start.
