I installed the Alpine HIDs. love em...

^ I've read too many stories from the M3 crowd that any HID will eventually discolor (yellow) the angel eye ring. I love the way they look though.

I'll be getting Lux V3 once I decide to buy.

yellow the glass ring? shoot me a link if you can. I've never heard of that before. I've had mine in for 2 months without any issues. I'll definitely keep my eye out for any yellow'ing.

I am going to wait and see if the LED angel lights from the 2012 will fit in my 2010 X5.

No prob. I ran across this thread while looking at AE options. It would obviously take time, but I don't want to put myself in that position.

You Will need to swap out both headlights. It will be very expensive.

thnx, bro. Hard to believe the AE rings are plastic...definitely felt like glass to me when I installed the HIDs.

Since no one has any experience with PIAA, I guess the choices are down to the iJDM for $120 on its website or the Lux for $245. LUX claims it is made in USA and I believe the iJDM one is made in China. Anyone using iJDM has any issues with codes or anything?

Thanks in advance.
