Daytime Angel Eyes: Stock vs Thunders pics

YearONE1 · 06-30-2009, 03:14 PM

Hey guys. I recieved my 8500K GP Thunders from E92-lighting.com yesterday, and thought I would post some daytime pics to show how them compare to stock DRLs.

Overall, you notice a little less intensity/brightness, which is made up for in a more clear color. Stock is on the driver's side.

Here are Thunders on both sides.

great shots, love the gp's

idk man...they kinda look *almost* like the stock in color. Is the difference more noticeable in person? especially being the 8500K i would think the color difference would be quite noticeable. I currently have the EFXs...but (as has been discussed numerous times in other threads) tho they look very niiiice (or atleast i think so..check out sig pic), ive got codes and i dont think i can handle it anymore! E92-lighting, where would a greater diff be more apparent vs stock..gp 6000K or 8500K ?

for halogen bulbs, you can get mtec, nokya or gp thunders, all cheap solutions to leds, we even carry efx now

They are noticably different in person. They are white, rather than yellowish. Until there is a LED that doesn't throw a code, these are my solutions, and they are cheap. I am not ready to give up my adaptive headlights for an LED bulb. I would love some feedback on the other LEDs, the RDs. I wonder if they throw codes?

I have the EFX and I don't have a code

However I did notice that the rings aren't very bright in day light. I think I'm going to upgrade to these when they are available http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=276837
