What to get? Getting LUX, what else??

Ok, I am going to bite the bullet and get some LUX!

But should i replace my Front cornering lights, front turn signals and fog light bulbs to have the complete package?

I ordered new clear side markers and a new led interior lighting package from e92-lighting.com. Waiting for those now. Just didn't know if I should order those other lights...

For the turn signals and fogs, talk to Jeff@Top Gear Solutions (I'm pretty sure that's his username here) and he'll hook you up.

Yeah, and I would cancel your order for the interior kit from e92 lighting. I just installed the HPB one (pictures are being taken tonight!) and it's nothing less than amazing.

The only complaint I have about HPB interior lighting kid is the Dome bulbs have 4 too many LED's in it each. It almost blinds me everytime they turn on. Other than that, easy install, 0 errors, great price, etc. Love em.

Just an FYI - at least in VA, I believe the turn signals have to flash orange or it's not street legal, don't know of that applies to sidemarkers as well.

I have the LUX V3 in my E92, and I replaced the cornering lights and fogs with blue/white halogen bulbs plus LED sidemarkers. They match fairly well with the HIDs LUX AEs. E92 lighting has some decent bulbs and you can usually find Sylvania or PIAA bulbs in super-white or ultra-white styles at auto parts stores.

If you are looking for the brightest and whitest interior kit we have it. (We use the highest quality LED available and put the most available for the size of the housing, we also incorporated a custom LED Dome Light Panel that cannot be found in any other interior kit made for this car).

We also have the Front Side and Reverse Lights in LED.

For the gentlemen that said they are too bright we do offer a less bright solution.

That is why i kind of went with the E92-Lighting side markers... They are clear but light up orange. Looked nice... Will provide feedback.
