Deciding which angel eyes to get, lots of frustration..Need Help ASAP!!

WhiteTornado · 02-01-2011, 11:56 PM

ok..ive just recently bought some HID fogs and 6000k replacement D1s bulbs for my headlights (high/low beams). Now i want to get angel eyes that will best match the 6000k bulbs. Im looking at either LUXs or Mtechs, but in a lot of pictures they seem just plain old white like ccfl to me. should i go lux 5.0 or 5.1?? Now i have a 2007 e90 pre-lci. Also if i just get a regular 6 watt led AE say from like highperformancebulbs.com will they give me good output at all?? i would like to go a cheaper route, but i want something nice and bright and can compare to 6000k HID. Please help me, this is frustrating.

LUX 5.1

I'd get a set of Mtec v3's, sure Lux 5.1's are nice, they're visually identical (i haven't seen them side by side, but most people use this argument ahah), so its up to you to decide if they're worth the premium.

5.1's, love the way they look. I did consider the mtecs as well but just went with the Lux's for some reason, lol.
