angel eye light replacement

I want to change the yellow angel lights on my 08 335i msport
I always thought that i needed to replace them with led expensive
Ones but apparantly they can be replaced with any 35w h8 xenon light from
Supercheap or repco to give it a whiter colour. Is that true?

I also have a yellow light when i turn the steering wheel, is that a seperate globe or same as
The halo ring globe?

You can but they wont be any brighter just different colour.

You need to go high power LEDs to make them brighter white. There are a couple of different types depending on model and lots of different brands and brightness levels.

I am looking into some new models and there is a bit of a discussion here if you're interested:

None of the halogen globes will give you a crystal white colour, it will always be warm white.

Philips which make diamond vision globe for head lights, which are a nice white, but they do not make a H8 diamond vision globe.

The "cornering" light is a different globe to the DRL globe.
