Questions about angelibright
 
I purchased a set of angelibright's for my 06 3.0i from EAS. After installing them, I wasn't impressed with the brightness of the lights. The pictures on the angelibright website shows them to be extremely bright even in the daylight. The lights that I installed are not very bright at all. You can't even tell that they are on when there is daylight. They are brighter than the stock lights, but for $300 I was expecting them to be so much more brighter. Is there anybody that has installed these that can chime in on how bright they are supposed to be? Are they supposed to be as bright as the pictures on angelibright.com? Thanks for any help and Happy Holidays.

got the same effect mate , if it wasn't for the fact they are white light over the factory yellow coulor i would have sent them back , I think the stock ones where actually more visible in daylight than the ibright 3 , not worth $300 in my opinion

Not good! I have some coming this week. Anyone from EAS care to address this?

Ouch I was looking at getting some as well. I got the DDM ones and they suck crap. Had them pulled out and sent in to be warranted within a couple months and I was looking at getting the AiB's but now I am wondering if all it does is just change them from amber to white then what’s the point. $300 is alot just for that

I got the Angel iBrights v3 and they worked out pretty well for me. I used to have the Predator ICE and that was brighter than stock, but not as much as the ibrights. The reason why they look extremely bright in pictures is because of the angle they took the picture at and ambient lighting. Also make sure they aren't loose in the housing and that its pushed in all the way and locked in

i used to have them on my e53 and they are okay... its not like you cant see them during daylight... but yeah, not even close to the pictures they have on their website... still better than oems though...

Seems like they're better then OEM's but clearly overpriced....

After playing with them a little bit more, I did notice that they are alot brighter than the stock lights. However, as stated in an earlier post, they do look much brighter in pictures than in person. I took pictures and they look extremely bright in the pictures. All in all I feel that $300 is way too much for these lights. If I had to do it over again, I would probably just purchase a cheaper set.

Can we see pictures of your AiBs in daylight?

The MYCARRs are less costly, but are known for their lack of longevity and lower light output when compared to AiBs.

Tom,

I have already contacted Jurrian about this issue. I will take a picture in the daylight as soon as I can. There is currently a storm going on right now here in SF, so taking a picture right now would not really show them in the daylight. As soon as the sun decides to come out, (might be a few days) I will take a picture and post it here. I will also send a copy to Jurrian as well.
