what version are these? Seems like everyone has 5 different flavors of them. Are you happy with them? Also if you have a specific link so I don't somehow buy the wrong ones that would be awesome.

thx.

I'm not sure about those. I was looking at them too but the LEDs on mine are all over in stead of just on the ends. But try them out see how you like them.

Still deciding, mind as well spend an extra 50 and get the ones you have since I like the look so much.

damn i was about to order the lux but these dont look bad...only thing that concerns me is in your first pic you only can see 1 ring on the passenger side and the second pic you only see the inners on both...they dont seem too bright.

So the $139 ones list power output at 1200 lumens whereas the $199 ones list output at 909. Just adds to the mass confusion

Any LED that we replace on our pre LCI e92 will look like that at different angels, reason being is that it is one LED per 2 rings. on the newer LCI model e92 and the F30s they use 1 LED housing per ring. All the same the rings look awesome from a straight on look. Also when you head lights are on you can not see the outer to much because it gets lost in the mix of HID.

Whether you go with MTEC or LUX there is not much difference. If your looking for the ultimate solution you might as well go OSS design.

In no way would I ever spend that kind of money on OSS or any of those full ring replacements...just looking for the best solutions for least money..if these look just as good as lux id rather save the $50 and spend it elsewhere.
