Lux Angel eye upgrade - V5 h8

So did the angel eyes upgrade, just one of the first of many to come...

The pics don't do it justice and perhaps my camera skills can be improved. But so far no error codes and looks fantastic in real life...

1st Pic : 5000k setting
2nd Pic : 12000k setting


I think I'll go for in between setting cause I'm sure the longer the brighter setting the shorter the life span...I think...correct me if I'm wrong

Nice pics and thanks for posting them. The lifespan is the same regardless of what color you choose actually. all the colors are the same brightness, just a different kelvin rating of White light.

I love these lux v5 h8 as well! Only gripe with them is that the inside circles seem to always be a little bit more bright and blue than the outside rings..

They look fantastic. The light dispersion between the inner and the outer rings looks much more even. I recently did LED angel eyes and I'm a bit disappointed with how much brighter the inner ring is than the outer.

That being said, I paid AU $50 for them instead of US $200.

I would love a set of these but it's hard to justify spending AU $300 on a pair of bulbs when there are so many cheaper options on the market.

That is unfortunately the design of the headlight itself and theres no way to make the inner an outer rings the same brightness. The LUX do work to mazimize the amount of light going to the outer rings though
