h8's are the bulb size

HID
pros: brightest of any options, cheap replacement parts, value

cons: light is so bright it tends to bleed, bulky install

LED
pros: perfect light output, small, clean install

cons: most expensive option, cheap ones tend to burn out

GP thunders
pros: cheap, different color from stock, simple install

con: low light output

What do you mean when you say "so bright it tends to bleed"?

Where do you get LED's? I can't even find LED's.

The hids are so bright the rings tend to not look like rings at night.

And look up lux angel eyes. Best on the market but backordered and pricey($230)

I ordered the Lux bulbs but I'm seriously considering OSS. They look amazing . They blow all the rest out of the water, but I don't want to be without head lights for 2 - 3 weeks.

for the LUX H8 you can click on the link in my signature, we have all the information and pricing listed there. Please send me a PM if you have any questions

Your for sale thread states the LUX lights will fit e70 X5 but not the X5M. Is there a way to modify to get them to fit the X5M?

Need some info on this also. Just picked up my 2011 x5m today and I'm looking to go down the LUX path but can't find enough info if they will work with my model or not. PM please

We are currently working on a change that should hopefully make them work for the X5m as well as the X6. we will have more information on this in the next 2-3 weeks.

Any resolution to the compatibility issues with the X5 M and X6 M?

Good news everyone: We have confirmed that the next batch of LUX H8 V3 WILL FIT the X5m, X6 and X6m

Everyone can now place orders and we will also get install instructions posted up shortly once we receive our parts in. Here is a picture of our x6 headlight ( sorry its bad quality, better pictures to come...)
