GP Thunder H8 SMD 18 LED Replacement Bulbs

Could this be the answer to all of our prayers?

I would hope so, If I had my X I would order just to try it out, but I don't think it it would do the trick.

I have been corresponding with Nick @ JLevi, and he seems to think the issue is with the current design of the angel eyes. And the only way to get full effect is to go HID.

this place is wholesale only, any retail with pricing on something like this?

Looks promising, however I doubt it will work any better than the other attempts. Im guessing this will make in the inner angel eye very bright and the light will fade on the outer. Nothing will look as good as the new factory engel eyes that the 2011 E70 got shafted on in the U.S.

These don't appear to have a built in resistor so they will cause an error.

No - the output of these bulbs are very weak.

So are these any better than the GP Thunder Quartz bulbs?

I've bought a set of GP Thunder quartz bulbs from them retail no problem. I just called them and they said they have customers that have tried them in BMWs and they did not set off codes, and they are about the same lumens as the quartz GP Thunder. Why wouldn't these work for the angel eyes??

Well I ordered a set so I will be the guinea pig. For $26 full led lights as long as they don't set off codes you can't lose.

Won't these throw a code since they're only 18 watts?
