I'm thinking of getting a set I had a piar of Lux ones before but theses look brighter....

i've just brought a pair of 20w [4 x 5 watt leds each bulb] cree leds of ebay for £55 delivered...although they are not as bright as OE headlights they are pretty good...

Yeah I saw theses I think a company called juiced up also sell them..I did fit them to the 335 but they were not as bright as the Lux ones...hence I thought theses might be better. 

the Cree ones are good value for money though !

i'd be sceptical to pay extra for what looks like the same thing but unless you try both side by side i suppose it would be difficult to tell...

this is a pic of them compared to the lux ones...

Has anyone noticed any radio interference from them?  There was an issue with some LEDs causing radio noise to other systems.  Decent kit will have been assembled taking RFI into Account, but the cheaper ones may not.  If present it could affect weaker DAB and Digital TV signals in particular plus the lower part of the radio frequencies in the MF & HF bands (what we used to call Medium Wave and Long Wave via the 'AM' function).

I don't use that 'part' of the radio receiver (mine's on DAB mainly), but just interested if anyone is finding any issues.

@westside, your 'current' ones seem brighter, what are they ?

@richard, no interference on mine even AM sounds ok..

Good to know.....

Shame they're so expensive!!  They aren't that expensive, but I have certain 'budget restrictions' in place due to the imminent arrival :'(

if you're on a budget ,then try the normal 'white' halogen h8 type  [ebay £7.48 delivered] ..i had a set in mine before i got the leds and they were whiter and brighter than the OE bulbs..

hi dude thats a picture taken from the chap who is selling them.  I had the lux ones on my e70, and the ones you have I had on my 335.  the lux ones on the e70 were brighter than the ones on the 335, and the ones the chap is selling on the group buy seems brighter then the lux ones. 

x5 sport I didnt have any poroblems with radio interferance on the e70
