LCI 2012 X5 FOG LIGHTS
Has anyone with a 2012 changed the fogs to match the New LED lights?
Just wondering which would match the best.
I purchased a set of the GP-Thunder 2 8500k after reading all the posts, just wonder if these will be okay.
Thanks in advance.

The 8500k GP thunders are a close match in the halo's but the foglights in 8500k are actually quite blue. A better match in the fogs is the 7500k GP thunders.

The 2012s have the LED halos, so would the 8500k be best?

I bought the [previous generation] 8500k GP Thunders and then switched to the 7500k soon after. They are both too blue. I don't think the new generation have changed (I think there's a new generation)...
