GFJMC 40W H8 CREE LED Angel Eye 360-Degree Halo Bulb Light Lamp 6000K Xenon White For BMW E60 E61 E90 E92 E70 E71 E82 E89 3 5 7 Series X5 X6 Z4 (H8-40W)

I was looking into H8 angle eyes after buy my 135i and realizing that the angle eyes in it were out. I did not want to spend upwards of 220 dollars for the Lux Angle Eyes kits so I started doing research on some cheaper alternatives. These caught my eye because of the price and the reviews, Looking into the reviews I was not worried that the bulbs would not work but more worried about the brightness. Many people in the reviews don't understand how BMW'S halos work and it shows. This product is far from oem and will never be as bright as newer oem halos. One of the biggest drawback when buying aftermarket halos is the fast that the Second (bigger) halo will not iluminate. The bigger halo works off reflections to light up the ring, Making it not as bright as the smaller halo were the ring has a bulb. Getting into the Review now these things are great and completely exceeded my expectations, They are pretty bright and not that hard to install. I installed them the other day so if all goes well hopefully they should hold up.

VALUE:Like I said. No need to pay 3×, 4× the $ for a "plug & play" Angel Eye upgrade. Unless you're going to completely replace the headlights for individual LED Angel Eyes, or "bake" open the housing & deal with 10-15y.o. German Engineering (light tubes/reflectors)😱; there is absolutely NO NEED to pay $$$$ to upgrade old tech! Yeah, other (more expensive options such as the ones mentioned above ARE readily available & produce the exact results people are complaining about when they compare their EXPECTATIONS of what a simple bulb upgrade is meant to do. But that's where the story ends...EXPECTATIONS: If you want 2023 Lighting effects, on your 2003 vehicle, you WILL pay 2023 $ to get that effect...Believe me-I've had 2 E30's an E24, E36 & now this E93. Applying ANY new tech to 2 an older car isn't cheap! I tried! From "Wish.com" Android Radios to "AliBabba" Ghost Lights (b4 they were included on new cars) or EBay Projector HIDs... Been there, done that. The issue is a $50 upgraded part usually takes another $400 to make it work on YOUR old car! That wasn't my issue here. I just wanted my light COLOR & BRIGHNESS updated to match all the others. Think more like "Ver. 1.5", not "Ver. 3.0". For that purpose, this product is a winner!VALUE: Truthfully it took time. Researching the products & reviews was a rabbit hole I was not expecting. From the "Million Dollar" options to the "Cheap Chinese Crap" the hole jus kept going. I know the dangers of putting cheap stuff on my car(s). I was just looking 4 a reasonably-priced, good option. Then the underdog shows up. YES! This...THIS is what the internet is supposed to be used for! Good reviews, price was right & the expectaions were set. Let's Gooo!!!INSTALL:The location provides very little room & isn't meant for anything more than 2"-3" of wiggle room to un/reinstall a bulb. The LEDs are bigger (overall) & the location is essentially blind/backward.. Especially on the passanger side b/c of other engine components in the way. But with patience,good lighting & a pair of long 45° needle-nose pliers (optional) the install can be done. & the results will be worth while! #chunkybase #Ineedtools!SIDE NOTE:If you're "brave", try this:1) Unscrew that #chunkybase from the actual LED bulb, keeping the wire harness close by.2) Lock the LED bulb in by itself, keeping the wires in line & free from bindig. The clip will help it stay in place for the next step...3) Carefully screw the base back on & plug in the wire. This will allow juuust enough room to install the bulb while having the back/base sort-of out of the way!🥳

I bought these lights for a 2012 BMW Z4 (E89).1. These lights are difficult to install if you have big hands. The OEM lights form and "L" shape that gives you something to turn when you lock them in place. The GFJMC lights are round so you don't have much leverage in the tight space you have to work with. This isn't a huge deal, you could possibly use channel locks to make installation easier.2. This light assembly is made of two pieces. The stem, which holds the LEDs, and the base, which you will be gripping when you screw them into place. While installing the drivers side light, be sure the light is full seated in the housing before you try to lock it in or the two parts with unscrew. This was easy to deal with once I saw what was happening. The passenger side light was easier to install since you turn the light the opposite direction.3. These light look good, not great. I would still recommend these lights because of the price. The inside halos are very well lit, but the outside halos are more dim than they were with the OEM bulbs. I'm sure they are installed correctly since they locked into place. After I noticed this I pulled them back out and turned them in the socket to make sure it wasn't just an alignment issue. The light isn't traveling down the light pipes as well as with the OEM bulbs.4. These lights did not cause a light bulb warning in my car.Overall: These lights work. The light is white. I am please with them for what I paid (~$33). I only gave 4 stars because they are harder to install than OEM.

I have provided a video showing what the stock turn signals & halos look like & what the turn signals & halos (both by this same seller) look like after installing as well as other pictures of how they look after I completely finished the driver & passenger side install. And I also provided a picture of a BMW e82 135i with LUX H8 installed in them next to my BMW e92 335i with these halos in & I personally think these ARE BETTER THAN LUX H8 ! And on top of that, they cost 1/3 almost 1/4 of the price (LUX H8 are $225) ! You absolutely can not go wrong with this brand ! Got these on December 13, 2021. I am writing this review on April 28, 2022. 4 and a half months later & they’re still working beautifully. Not sure how long they’re really going to hold up, but as of right now, never had an issue, no shorting out, no canbus error codes, and absolutely BEAUTIFUL compared to stock Halogen Halos. I also have the side Turn Signal Lights from this same seller (as mentioned already) & installed them the same day as the halos & they’re just as beautiful & holding up for 4.5 months as well. Definitely recommend these & the turn signals. Only thing is, just like everyone else said, the halos are hard to change because of the limited space you have in the headlight & you most likely will cut your hand or at least scratch the sh*t out of your hand. But that’s going to happen literally with any halo bulbs you install as I have now replaced my halos twice (once to OEM Halogen bulbs & now second time was with these) & I scratched my hand up both times replacing the halos so either way, that shouldn’t be a reason that people are giving this 4 or 3 stars. They look way better than stock (obviously lol), the LUX H8 (in my opinion) as I already mentioned & they’re holding up just fine after almost 5 months. So I’m giving them 5 stars all around !

Purchased these to try out before forking out the money to get the Lux brand ones everyone recommends. I figured for half the price it’s worth a shot to see how long they last.Install is pretty straight forward remove OEM bulbs and install new LED ones. I was installing them on my 2011 BMW M3 coupe. For the OEM bulbs you don’t want to touch the bulb directly without wearing gloves as the oil from your fingers can ruin the bulbs. As for the LED bulbs no gloves needed while handling them. The LED bulbs have ballast attached to them and you can just tuck them behind the bulbs out of the way. If your really picking you can always use zip ties or electrical tape to secure them but I didn’t bother.They look so much better compared to the OEM dull daytime lights and really update the front end. I’ve had several people surprised to hear that my car is only a 2011 as they assumed it was a lot newer. I daily my car so the lights get used pretty much every day. They seem to go along with the factory headlights as they’re both similar in color.I’ve only had them installed for a few weeks now so we’re see how long they last. I’ll update my review if one ends up burning out in the next few months.
