Installed
Installed my LUX H8 v3's today and they indeed look great! Tricky to install due to the tight compartment.. found that it was easiest to insert the LUX by holding onto the tip with the LEDs and putting the heat sink end into the light box first. Then when the LUX is deep enough into the box, you can tilt it and get the tip into the socket hole. Then it was just a matter of twisting it around until the lugs engaged in the slots and it could be tightened in place. Look at the lugs before you insert it, there are three and they are all slightly different. Compare to the original bulb and you can see which way should be up on the LUX. Marking the LUX heat sink will help you orient it as well.
Once installed, I found that the power supply would rattle around in the light box and so I wrapped it in some foam to give it a snug rattle-free fit. It actually slips down past the LUX and can rest on the bottom of the light box quite nicely. The lower it is the less heat it will encounter as well is my theory. Attached are some picture for your viewing pleasure. All in all, a very nice upgrade and the LUX is at least as bright as the factory bulbs if not brighter, and the cool white light certainly looks better then the factory yellow. Matches the headlights perfectly. Last edited by M3-Mike; 08-28-2011 at 09:21 PM.. |

Due to all the good feedbacks regarding LUX Angel Eyes I just ordered :
1 kit for my M3 E92 1 kit for dad's M3 E93 1 kit for mom's X1 28i I think we will be the first to have LUX Angel Eyes in Switzerland. I can't wait.

I installed them and after using them a while, the color of the halo rings are a bit off compared to the HID headlights. They look distinctively more blue than the headlight low beams themselves and look very aftermarket in comparison.
I am torn on whether I like this look and don't want it to look aftermarket. |

I got what I ordered 12 days ago and a good friend of me installed LUX Angel Eyes V3 on my E92 and on my dad's E93. It's 1000x better than the stock yellowish bulbs !!! I am in love with those LEDs !
Here are photos: I will do some photography of my dad's E93 when he will have more free time. Thanks to LUX Angel Eyes.

installed mine in about 15 minutes, thanks to the advice in this thread! it was much easier to drop them in with the LED facing up, then using the wires to guide them inside the assembly. love 'em!

Even if I did my best to be close to the reality with my pictures, LUX are a way better in the real world. I replied to your PM.
