hopefully, I can be of some help to someone. So I've tested and tried out multiple variants of the LED h8 bulbs. From cheap ones to mediocre ones and just like yourself I stumbled across the video of the Novisight Bulbs.
I did a little bit of research (looked at the bulb and the type and specs) and took a gamble and ordered this h8 6500k led bulb that looked very similar to the novisights and cost me £9 including shipping:

My results going from a previous bulb that didn't light up the second halo very well to (all photos are taken in daylight at gloomy conditions however full daylight) :

After:

Much brighter and the outer halo lights up perfectly. For some reason, it showcases up as Yellow in this photo however this is the camera playing up its defo white.
The install was easy as there is no canbus add ons or faffs, the only downside is the o rings that were on the LED were slightly too bulky so had to replace them with the original Osram H8 bulb o ring. Installing wise there was no issue getting it into the housing super easy quite sleek and same as the Osram bulbs place in, twist and connect the cable.

But yeah hope this helps someone whos looking to do the upgrade from the bulbs to LED's and wants that white look. Ive tested multiple led's with different shapes sizes and strengths and for 10 pounds, a weeks and a bit of shipping time no errors can't really go wrong!
Also I'm not getting paid for the link just helping yall out!

Sorry to dig up an old thread but interested in new bulbs (to go from the yellow to white angel eyes)
Are the £10 bulbs actually worth a punt?
Also do I need 4 bulbs (2 each side)

I don't know about the £10 bulbs but you need two bulbs one for each side. Usually they are sold in packs or boxes of twos.

Too true, it's worth a punt.
