Anything brighter than LUX (e90 pre-lci)

I was wondering if there is anythig brighter than lux angels Eyes on a e90 pre lci. Want to do an upgrade on my angels eyes and wondering if there is anything brighter, like a HID kit or something that can work on our cars. And no thanks I'll pass on the OSS design. Interested in plug and play.

Thanks

LUX is the best in the market so far I have them and loved them, the new version 5.1 should be even better.

without going into OSS territory...nope. LUX ftw! there are no HID angel eyes for pre lci e90s, something about the bulb being complicated to work with. I would go with the LUX 5.1 if I were u.

I've had 2 pairs of LUX and they look great, but they burn out almost exactly on their 1 year anniversary. I haven't tried the newest version.....but at this rate, $200 per year on angel eyes is starting to be expensive.
Right now I'm driving around droopy-eyed, 1 angel eye out, and thinking about just going back to stock bulbs.

That was the only thing that held me back on the LUX...The 1 year expiration =/ I don't know about the 5.1...

New vs. Old

how are the lux compared to the new lci e90 models in brightness not color. the other day i spotted a lci model a great distance away becuase of the brightness of their eyes. also are other members having the 1 year expiration on their lux units, and how is the new model 5.1 lux new and improved compared to the other units.

man that would have be nice if we can do a HID setup

Hey if your having a problem with our Lux then shoot me a PM. I can definitely get these fixed for you. I never want to see someone driving around with droopy eyes
