And in my opinion, they look ricey. If they looked like the ccfl ones they used on the E46, it would look better At least with LED/ HID you can remove them when you go to dealer

During the day yes. But unfortunately at night when you turn on your headlights they dim so much they yellow and don't look great

Not sure about a 2nd updated pack, but early/mid 2010 is when the v3 came out (if I'm not mistaken). I think you still have the v2. |

Really? That would be awesome. At one point I had GPs wired for full voltage with no dimming and that was my favorite setup. Def the best looking. But it was that Camaross Elite kit that kept burning out as well

The luminal output on all coated bulbs are crap imho...who cares about the claimed 6000K-8500K color temp when luminal output is what is key...halogen type light bulbs put out 2200 lumens....4300 HID capsules 2800-3200 lumens.
Not sure what LED's put out. I would never put coated bulbs in my car for headlights, angle eyes and prob even parking lights. |

You really have to be careful with any aftermarket ballast. I had problems with my E46 kit (Predator's I believe?). I modified the ballasts to ensure the wires didn't short and then used 1/2" shrink wrap over the body to keep out moisture.
Personally, I don't plan on messing with the OEM AE's.

AiB= complete garbage (from experience) - thankfully EAS customer service is legit. I still can't understand why they still sell them- there's tons of these similar threads with the same problems on e90 post.
LS3/OSS are the way to go if you ask me, love my LS3s

I KNEW this would be the problem with this stuff. You shove something that needs a heat sink into a small space and think there is no risk of a possible fire??? The only way this mod seems to make sense is when someone is able to take the new factory E90 corona bulbs and use them in an M3. Or it is possible that the 2012 M3 will have the brighter coronas and it will be not so difficult to make them backwards compatible. That will end the aftermarket for the M3.
