I think this is the PIAA H505, anybody here using that? It will be interesting to see how it compares to the LUX.

I would like to see the difference as well. I thought about buying them but $300 is a bit much for an experiment. If I knew they would be better I wouldn't mind spending the money.

Somehow, I doubt that these ebay lights are genuine PIAA. Coming from Hong Kong in that box, I don't think so.

I had my doubts but I found the PIAA's Japanese website:

BMW専用『New LED RING BULBシリーズ』新登場。｜PIAAニュース｜PIAA

However, at $300 it is a risk if it didn't work out better than the LUX.

that sucks man, didn't turn out like you hope.
i first bought the LED's and then i wanted to try the gp thunder, ended staying w/ the LEDs.
everyone has a different preference. the only thing that during regular daylight, they are not as bright as i would like it to be.

this is how mines look

They look great. How much did they cost? Did you change your fogs?

I thought the LUX V3 was on pre-order still.
