BMS Angel Eyes

leggomycraigo · 02-13-2012, 01:45 PM

I received and installed my new BMS LED AE. Luckily I ordered at 99$. I saw it is now 129. But looks good and seems like good quality from what I can tell. They are the newer ones on the website and the box says CREE 10W LED. Either way, no codes and looks nice. The inside ones are brighter and I havent really looked at them in the sunlight yet. I tried to take pics with my phone but didnt look very good. Maybe I will take out a real camera later if I dont get lazy.

upon install, did you align the LED with the angel eye tube opening?, this ensures both rings will receive equal lighting. Where did you place the box/ballast?, guys were reporting the box restricts the adaptive light movement hence causing code issues.

the inside ring will always be brighter then the outer ring.

There is no positoning of the LED. It has 3 pins at the back with different size. just place according to the correct pin size and turn until you feel it is tight but do not over-tighten.

I did have the restriction on my adaptive headlight. Quick fix, 3M double side tape the ballast on the headlight cover and you should be fine. But must stick the ballast towards the grille direction.

Agreed

, no matter what brand LED you get, the inner ring is always brighter than the outer ones.

The design of the AE causes the light source to go to the inner ring then the outer ring.

leggomycraigo · 02-13-2012, 05:29 PM

yeah i just locked them in the way they fit into the hole. i am not too concerned about the difference in brightness, factory was that way as well. also, I have not had any adaptive headlight issues.

Unless you get the Bavarians, which actually replace the rings themselves. correct me if i am wrong

10w Cree? Wow. Can't wait to see photos. The old model was nice and white but not very bright.

How difficult is install on 2011+?

leggomycraigo · 02-14-2012, 12:07 PM

its simple, took about 15 mins.

SukSqueezeBangBlo · 02-19-2012, 12:35 AM

Now they make them with Four LED's per headlights.. I believe they should be close to the brightness of LUX but for $130...
