Lux H8 V3 or 5000K for Black E82 135i
Guys, I really need your opinion in choosing the light for angel eyes. I got confuse whether to go with the 5000K or 6500K.
Let me know what you think. Opinion and feedback really appreciated. Thank you guys! |

I originally had the 6500k however I also have a '12 with the LED brow which the 6500k didn't match 100% as it was too blue. Swapped them out for the 5000k and they match perfectly! Also I noticed that the 6500k was bluer then the HID's which looked a bit off as well. From what I've noticed the 3's and 5's with LED AE's the AE's actually dim/turn whiter when the HID's are on which makes them look like they match. I took some comparison pics of the 5000k vs. 6500k and you can def see that the 5000k matches the brow much better.

I had a problem, used some double sided tape on the ballast and never got an error again. Also, make sure you install the cover back on the light correctly so you dont get condensation in the light. And take your time.

I haven't install it yet Chris. I'm still scared that it will affect my adaptive but fellow members in my area willing to help and I might do it in a few months but not now for sure. Let me know once you decide to install it

Let me know how this goes! I was thinking about installing 6500k's but again I didn't want to mess with my Adaptive headlights.
Maybe take it to the BMW Dealership and have them do it? |

I don't think want to do it. If they want to, they won't be responsible for any mess. Since it's not their product. That's what I thought. I will let you know once I'm brave enough to do it.
