Yea, the brightest right now (probably until LUX or HPB comes out with a newer one) is the Cree LED. Ttam made a review on it on his E92, but it fits your E90 too: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?p=9635217

After meeting with the person who does the metal machining there was a change in the design. The machinist is currently working on it and should have something next week.

Sorry for being off-topic.

Is there anyway to have CREE LEDs for the rest of the blubs (side-marker, front and rear turn signals)? I'm very disappointed by the light output, especially for amber.

Marc...I'm impressed! I thought you were working on a 921 replacement, not an entire module replacement for the E92 LCI's! That's some serious work right there, I'm floored by the quality--but really, can't really expect much less from someone like you

Well in order to make a bulb with high power LED's you need the heat sink, and that that is not possible to make a 921 bulb. more to come

Ours or white in person. Go Pro is horrible with picture taking.

I'll post up a short video that shows its true colors in real life.

This is a dark video and you can still tell they are truly white.

Here are 2 quick comparison shots. This is from the back passenger taillight and the side by side shots are identical exposure

As you can see by the shape of these lights they are unique and will only fit the E92 LCI Style bulbs.
