Installed Weisslicht LED Halo upgrade

Was going back and forth over the iBright and alternative options. For almost a $200 difference I thought giving the Weisslicht LEDs a try was worth the risk. Overall I am happy with them. They are brighter that OEM and definitely whiter - which was my primary concern. If there is anybody in the East Bay Area with iBrights I would love to compare side by side - if I like the iBrights better I'll upgrade.

Here are some pictures I took.

do you have any pic of the AE on ONLY during daylight? I was looking at these for my m5 as well. Thank you. I really want to compare these to iBright, MTEC, and the ones installed in your x5.

No, I'll grab one today though. I'm hoping to meet up with someone with the iBrights, I'd like to know if the difference in performance is worth the added cost (personal assesment obviously).
