WeissLicht Ultra-Bright LED Ange eye versus Mtec v2.0
 

Has anyone had experience with these bulbs...Which one would you consider brighter.And i know most would say go with Angelibrights but there is a recession going on and there isnt $300 for two little bulbs.It really isnt that serious for a minor upgrade..:dunno:

I put the WeissLichts in my '05 X5 and they were quite a bit better than the stock bulbs, but not as bright as they claim them to be. During the day, they dont stand out really, but look nice at night. I still have em in though, since I also dont feel like spending $300+ on 2 bulbs. I got other stuff to spend my money on ;)

Thanks zeroboot..

We get this type of question all the time. If you have your heart set on the AiBs, please save the money and get a set when ready, otherwise - you will be disappointed.

While not the cheapest - the AiB system is the hands down best system for the X5. :thumbup:

nice marketing...

Are you talking about the full AE upgrade or just the bulb replacement???

If it's just the bulb replacement, I went with the City Vision from Mod Bargains (they do not recommend AIBrights anymore) and got those with a lifetime warranty for $179.95. They may still have the $40 off coupon for those as well (which I didn't get :confused:).

I actually got the Mtec 2.0, and there not that bad. At night there awesome and id have to report back to you about day time since i didnt really take a look at how they look in the day. My X is in the shop cause someone hit me so it might be a while b4 i can actually tell you if its bright during day time. And i keep hearing AIB's are great but i haven't really seen Real life comparisons, only pictures which don't really help.

My experience with AIB...
Light output might be great but terrible fitment. I had to really put all my strength and force to put on to the driver side and the passenger side, I couldn't never turn to lock after plugging it into the housing socket. I don't know if I got a pair of defected one but spending a 300 buck for pair of bulbs that didn't fit... I was kind of disappointed.
Returned and bought a pair of eBay one. Fitment was GREAT but the light output isn't bright as AIB's... but better then stock bulbs thou...

I have read some positive reviews about MTEC v2.1
Some claims that they are slight brighter then AIB's and mainly the cost is less then half vs AIB.
