They can be seen from very far away, just like the newer-style bimmer LED angel eyes, if not better. They're extremely bright.
I would recommend purchasing the halo rings for cheap, including any wiring needed, and then either DIY it or have a reputable shop install for you. The retail pricing for this work done through XtremeHID is too high IMHO, so I wouldn't spend that kind of money. I only did this because it was going to be covered by my insurance after the run-in with bambi up on the mountain roads |

It's hard to tell by the picture, but do you know if the LED is is in front or behind the original angle eye defuser (clear plastic ring with ridges around the face of the perimeter)? Does it look like they added a new defuser in front of the LED ring?
BTW, you're really lucky bambi didn't cause damage to the sheet metal. I ran into a deer with my wife's 525i and it only broke the headlight alignment adjusters, which are brittle plastic, but replaceable, no other damage. My neighbor was not so lucky and had bumper, fender and hood damage. |

If it weren't for track experience and quick reflexes, and the fact that bambi didn't have antlers, bambi, my car and I would probably not have made it out alive Overall, just front bumper, driver side headlight, and driver side fender were bruised up. Bambi pretty much slid off the body panels, since I had just washed the car and it was silky smooth |

How do these look compared to the TEK's? Tap on wood, but my TEK"s have been awesome. Hope they last another four years like the first four.

Did they have any problem installing since Tek had already cut these open once? Are they green when off like Teks?

And, no, these look clean and uniform white when off. They do have a blueish hue when on however. I personally love it. It's just like HIDs or even LED headlights with the blueish tint. |
