Lux H8 V5 problem?

I'm not sure if its because of the pre-lci headlights but the outer halo's aren't as bright and the left headlight emits a more yellow light than the right even though they're both set with the same settings. Other threads said to reinstall them but they were of older versions, which didn't work for me still. Any thoughts guys?

The outer rings are always dimmer on pre lci e92 lights. Its just the way they are. The only way to change that is to upgrade the rings but thats expensive. I can't help you on the color.

That does look kind of yellow but that may just be the picture. What temperature are they set to?

Here's my thread with pictures of the V4s:

The rings become more even when you are further away but even up close the outer rings are still lit. I have an e90 so it may be different.

Yeah thanks I got the idea. Those V4's look awesome though I believe they're at 5000k, where no setting is adjusted. From the pictures point of view, the left halo is always dimmer than the right even at 12K I should've shot some pics of them

V3 is the best... V4 and V5 makes the inner rings way too bright, this will make the outer rings looks weak.

To me evenness > brightness.
