Since the angel eyes worked out I got their LED Fog Light upgrade. That was a killer upgrade. Maybe better than the Angel Eye upgrade! If it wasn't asking for a ticket you could drive with just the fogs on with LED upgrade!

Fogs - https://beyonddrivenauto.com/led-headlight-kit
This store looks promising especially the lifetime warranty. I'm interested in the angel eye kit, did you purchase the 20w or 40w?

I personally did 40W. There was only one version of the fog lights. They replied quickly to email and shipping happened same day. Was really happy.

Great thanks alot! I just ordered the $46 ebay ones same as yours. I just want to change from yellow to white, didn't seem worth it at all to spend $150-$200.

Some other guys even spend $1k-2k to retrofit 2012 headlights. I just can't justify spending that much for lights.

Can't wait to get them.

At what point does the 'wattage wars' end? The H8 style in late model BMWs only support so much light. This has been proven time and time again. It seems the 20W and 40W versions work quite well with the 40W definitely better than the 20W.

80W? 90W? 120W? It's LEDs on a shaft. Until someone does something actually new(Like color changing)) where does it stop?

More Wattage equals more lumens(in theory) but not more output in real world from what I have seen. For instance ever seen a 5W or 10W LED upgrade on an E39 M5 with the hella rings from the factory?
