bmw e92 lux h8 bulbs just got them

looks really bright! had to wait 1+ month to get these tho, lolz. for $230 shipped,... i think they should be even brighter! But it is what it is, i am overall happy with them. When you turn the car on tho, they flash all crazy about 6 times... not sure if i'm feelin that... does anyone else have these and flicker like that? my e64 645 flashes very subtley 2-3 times, but these lux h8 are like cop car flashers... install was a b*t*h, it is pretty damn hard to fit the bulb in the socket and your hand and twist it into place!... not much room to work with, had to use a flat head screw driver to spin it into place. my crappy point and shoot can't focus on the rings. in all pics my headlights are NOT on.

Oh yeah, so far so good with the amber corner delete and amber marker rewired to the sidemarker!

the ddm hid kit i got is 10k non-slim line kit with error cancelors 35watt. had to get the 4700 fareid capacitors from radio shack n wire it all up, unit works but i still get "foglight out" once in a while but the bulb is working fine, its very random... this is the only thing i need to work on with my lighting setup

hope to see/meet u guys at the meet on the 28th! will try to bring both cars out!

btw: next up is some 19" HRE 545R polished with rivets, H&R sport springs, cross drilled slotted rotors, paint calipers silver, and low dust brake pads! hopefully will have it all done before the meet!

Looks good but I dont think that it should flicker that many times on start up.

Flickering is actually normal on certain cars. it depends on the build date of your car, thats what i've been finding with everyone.


Good pics though!!! I'm glad you like them
