New E92 Member!! pic attached! + some questions

Hey guys, already need u guys help!

or i should try
1. GP Thunders H8 as angel eyes and fogs, + Mtec H3 conering or,
2. Mtec Cosmos Blue H8 for angel eyes and fogs + Mtec Cosmos Blue H3 for conering

so confusing!!!

go for cosmo blue to match ur bluish 6000K

GP gives out purplish tint...

but.. finally the result won't matter if u choose gp or cosmo

because.. when xenon is on.. the power to the angel cut to 66%.. which explains when the xenon is on.. ppl are observing dimming to the angel..

less power to cosmo or gp thunder.. they don't show the color that well...

those 6000k's look very nice
just do GP Thunders H8 as angel eyes, + Mtec H3 conering or, + HID fog kit (needs some wiring work, no biggie)
i think it would look sick

solution : relay work could be done to the angeleye bulbs to get the power directly from the battery + terminal
problem with solution : causes mess, drilling a hole, etc lol

the fear is that.. the bulb error would show up....

someone has suggest to fig out the lines to swap between teh DRL and Angel... for E92.. Angel is DRL. but there is a power difference when the Xenon is on.. and when the Xenon is off..... someone has post a head light assembly before.. and it looks like there is a light controlling module in the headlight....

DE1001, do you remember where you ordered the bulbs from? Two pairs for $40 is a good price.

are your 6000k headlights more blue than your 8500k gp thunder fog lights? seems that the fog lights should be more blue, but they don't look like it.

Looking good. what I did was ordered some LED H11 fogs from http://superlumination.com/headlights.htm. They work much better than the PIAA terra led technology. Just ordered them today. I will post pics when they arrive.

If the LED is burned... change back to stock bulb and take it to dealer to have it fix. as far as I know.. LED is embedded into the headlight... they have to replace the whole headlight assembly.

WHy? Someone else already tried to replace those yellow led.. and ask dealer.. and the dealer response was that is part of the headlight assembly.. unless you want to take the head light apart.. i suggest you to change everything back to stock.. including the 6000K HID bulb.and have the dealer replace whole headlight.

WHy?

unless ur dealder is super cool... they could refuse replace head light assembly.... with all after market light.. and blame you for short out the LED.
