Angel Eye question...

Finally back in the M3 family, and there are several mods already in the immediate plan...anyway, searched the forum (I know you guys will jump right in and ask me to, I was on that side before), too many threads around them to go through...anyway, need to hear some real world end-user experience here...I am at least aware of the following options for the angel eyes upgrade:

1. MTEC CREE
2. City Vision
3. Lux V3
4. AngeliBright V4...and many more that I haven't came cross I assume

What's your experience with these from a performance and reliability perspective? Ease of installation? (They all say can be done in 10 mins)

I don't need something that I won't even need my headlights, I just want the rings to go from stock yellow to white, like the 335is. Of course, no start-up flickerings...etc.

Thanks!

The AIB kits have a 3-year warranty, the longest in the business. Most LED-based kits can be installed within 10-15 minutes.

We've got you covered with AIB, feel free to contact me directly if you have any other specific questions on the kits.

I went with the LUX and have had no issues. Install isn't complex, but it can be a pain in the ass as there isn't much room to work.
