Hi what are the best replacements for the original halogen bulbs
Want to try an get the halo rings a similar colour to the zenon
Headlights.
Got some off eBay £59 but although the colour looks perfect the
Outer/larger ring doesn't seem bright enough the LEDs I fitted
Are the y shaped type any ideas.
Cheers Paul.

Talking of daytime running lights i've been flashed quite a few times by oncoming cars and couldn't figure out why and I'm sure its the lights, theyre quite bright when looking straight at them.

Or he has his lights in auto mode and the auto sensor is slightly sensative?
 
I got flashed by someone the other day too.....but that's another story!

You will never get 3 series levels of brightness. Maybe when the E89 is facelifted...

Nope not in auto mode, but I'm guessing they do need to be bright if on during the day :?

Probably flashing me cos they fancied me :?

The LUX H8 V3s get good reviews, not sure if they are available in the UK though?
