Headlight and Fog Upgrade.

HYBRID6 · 04-02-2012, 06:13 PM

Just ordered the LUX H8 V3s from LUX for the AEs and a set of GP Thunder H11s from White-Light for the fogs . I'll take before and afters to show the difference and let you know about the buying , delivery and service once everything arrives. I had an OEM rear spoiler put on last week ............... the modding has started !!

Just did the exact same thing with headlights and fogs,it looks great,you will love it.
I did just headlights to start but then the fogs let it down with their yellow glow,so did fogs as well,now it looks complete.
Got the lux kit and the fogs from e92lighting,both were great to deal with.

G'day Mate ! Great to hear it all works well . I'm looking forward to seeing the transformation . I see all the LCI X5s on the road with HID's and everything looks so dated compared , I want to get this done before the LCI X6 into's. Got any pics ??
Cheers

I have taken a few photos today,not very good,i think there is a trick to taking photos of headlights,but you can get the idea.They are taken with just daytime driving lights on,then headlights on,and then headlights with fogs on,hope this helps.

Great ! Thanks for taking these shots . What a difference ! I should have mine by the weekend , so far LUX has sent me a tracking number , haven't heard anything from White -Light............. any tips on the install ? I need to spend a few minutes looking at the fog grills to see where the tabs are.I did the fogs on my previous 550 , pretty straight ahead .
Cheers

Yeah fitting is easy,the lux lights straight forward,just a little tight getting into the headlight housing if you have big hands,just plug and play.
The fogs were real easy,left side a little less room because of oil-cooler,not sure if it is the same on the hybrid model you have,the mesh comes straight out,then reach around unscrew bulb,un-plug bulb from wire harness,plug in new bulb,screw back into housing,mesh will click back in,all done.
