Reach out to them. Maybe they have a set laying around.

I'd never put anything cheap on this car from Amazon or eBay or whatever.

Understandable, and for the most part i wouldn't either. I've had a lot of luck with AUXbeam in the past on other vehicles so I wasn't too concerned with using their bulbs. I just wasn't a fan of the color they offered. I'll try and email LUX but something tells me there's a very tiny chance they just have some laying around

If they have sets lying around, can you let me know. Missed my chance to get a pair by a few hours when they were selling out.

Why did they stop production? Seems like there's decent interest. I have the LUX 189 ones but would consider a pair of the gold too if they made them. I'm probably going to do the yellow DRLs on my F87 CS. The F8x CS models didn't come with them from the factory but I feel like it deserves it

It is funny how everyone want the Lux Gold after they discontinued. I also have the Lux 189 and remember it was the one to get back then��

If you're willing to split your headlights, you can run Diode dynamics switchbacks as the amber running lights.

I just split them and replaced the lenses, I don't want to go through that again 🤣

Perhaps ask them if there is enough interest in getting the gold ones what is the minimum qty required, they might be to remake them for a group buy.

Just heard back. They said it's a no. There would have to be more than 100 people interested, and it would take them over a year to make them.

Thats a shame, but it was worth asking.
