Got my new lux h8 bulbs today!

I have to say, these are one of , if not the best bulbs out there. Installation took 10 min. Opened the cap, unscrewed the old bulbs, screwed in the new bulb, put the cap back on and done.

First picture is to show the difference between the stock and h8 second picture was taken around noon,in bright sun. Just to give you an idea of how bright these bulbs are, the sun is so bright you can barely see the orange parking markers lit up (which will be gone soon).

You can also see the black kidney grills, and the black and white bmw roundels.

I got my today too. The construction of the lux is so much better than all others I've seen so far. They look good too. Now, I am wondering if I should get an amber pair

They may fit, we don't know yet. It seems like Lux is taking his time finding out(no offense to him im sure he is busy as hell) but if it were me I'd go out of my way to find out if they work asap because that opens up a lot of new orders.

What kind of lights do they have? Or is the housing just different?

It is not yet known if the V3's fit, I think it's the housing but do not know for sure.
I bought a set and am awaiting shipment, hopefully they will fit right out of the box but if they don't i'll make them work.

Received mine on Saturday, alas they do not fit the X5M, at least I couldn't get them too. Grrrr...one hour later, a couple scraped knuckles later, I gave up. Can't figure out why they don't fit though, the tabs seem to line up fine. Frustrating!
