Pre-LCI E90 Angel Eye Light Suggestions

Maverick27 · 09-20-2015, 06:14 AM

Hi Guys,

So I have been using 40W CREE LED LED angle eyes off ebay and I have managed to go through 3 so far in 16 months and Im getting pretty annoyed with replacing them. Can anyone recommend different LEDs for a Pre-LCI?

They should last longer with that. Aren't you getting a 12 month warranty?

My thought with the ebay models you are not getting very good quality so the internal components are dying and/or the LEDs are burning out because they cannot tolerate the heat, particularly if they are being over-driven. Perhaps they are not real CREE LEDs.

What's your daily driving time? That will affect it.

The two listed on BMR are both for LCI cars... not much is out there for pre-LCIs...
