GP Thunder vs. Stock on e92 during daytime

Dr. G · 11-10-2010, 07:36 PM

Anyone have a comparison picture of GP Thunders vs. stock Angel eyes on an e92 under sunlight?

I'm gueesing the Gp's will be good at night but are they worth the upgrade during the day? Or should I just wait to get Lux?

I like the Gp's even though they're not really that bright during the daylight. They're easily visible, but not very bright. I don't really care about the brightnes, like some other people but I prefer white angel eyes over the ugly yellow ones. Just my .02

Here's a picture for you..

I have the GP thunder V2 and they are pretty bright at night but barely visible in direct sunlight but hey they're cheap and shouldn't be more than $30for a pair of bulbs. Personally I like them.

I got a set of the GP ThunderII in 8500K - only installed (1) side to compare for about 30secs - I like the MTec 4750's I have better.

And you can get them here for $16 shipped not $30

I actually got mine from there for only $12 shipped because they were on sale...

That's why I laugh when I see people selling used GP's for $25, but hey, buyer beware I guess...

If daytime visibility is important to you then put the $25 you would spend for the GPs and get the LUX. GP Thunders are not that visible during bright sun. Not to mention the GPs dim to a yellow color when the HIDs are on.
