E92-Lighting V12 bulbs
A couple months ago I was ordering V10 bulbs from E92-Lighting, then I found out about the V12s. They were super helpful on changing my order and threw in some H3 cornering bulbs.
I've had the V12s on for about a month and they're great. Haven't seen any flickering and they're bright, much better than the stock halogens. Not exactly sure how to turn on the cornering bulbs but I have those installed too. Installation was pretty easy, smaller hands would make the V12 install easier, but the H3 install was very simple, only took 3 minutes. Everything is plug and play. Some pics during day and night. |

Cool! Keep us posted how they last! You may notice people flashing you (thinking your high beams are on) lol. I did with the v10s.
Fyi- cornering lights come on when you turn on a turn signal or both come on when you put the car in reverse (ignition has to be on)

Also draws some visibility to your front end when you're turning. You can also set these up to come on when you're in reverse (and which direction you're turning in reverse) to increase visibility in a dimly lit area.

Your pics looked like you zoomed in from a distance, too. That will skew what the AEs actually look like.

It's cool, didn't think you were hating. Just trying to see what angles potential buyers want.

looks pretty amazing the outer rings are clearly defined in the daytime, the cornering lights are activated when the steering is moved to the right or left, they are also activated when going into reverse, both cornering lights

Would it be technically feasible to have them dim when the headlights are on? I have the V7s and have been flashed at night because they are too bright.

Is that a native function? I've never noticed it.

You wouldn't unless you're outside the car when someone else does it.
But yes, native feature.

Hello guys, I'm sorry but I just have a silly question to ask. The V12 is the bulb for the halo or the HID? Also Pooyab, did you modify the outer rings at all or those are completely stock? From what I saw so far, changing the lightbulbs does chage the color of the halo rings but the outer rings won't be as bright as the inner rings. Yours look pretty bright and even. Thanks.

They look great. How long did it take to get yours after you ordered them? I ordered some 10 days ago and I'm still waiting. I guess Amazon Prime has spoiled me with two day shipping.

I actually had my car for a while and just had some custom work done but wondering does the inner(smaller headlight) doesn't turn on at all ? Or what's it's purpose ?
