They are just normal LED replacement bulbs. It's just a clever pic that make them look so bright.

For some reason he's listed everything as being 8000k HID...lol

Ahhh I see. For one wonderful moment, I thought somebody had discovered a source of angel eyes for the E53 that are as bright as DRLs. Never mind.

Unfortunately not. I too hunger for super bright angel eyes on my E53 but even the angelibright v3's I run which cost me....well let's just say A LOT...aren't much brighter than normal replacement jobbers off eBay.

Have though abou that too as I already fitted hid fogs.

Only thing I thought though was the heat given off and the fact that in our headlight units the bulb would be exposed as opposed to enclosed in the lamp. Hmmm

Anyone know how much heat the HID's give off compared to a normal halogen lamp?
