Hello guys,

i found a solution, i use a H6W ledwith a resistor


All is right, no error message but the angel eye 's light is low.


i have to find led H6W more visible, do you have a solution ? Mtech ?

I don't think so ... Take a look the socket ... it's not even std bulb socket then the bulb opening etc...
On the other hand like on LCI w/ Xenon they use standard H8 bulb for the AE so many people fit it w/ HID.
That's the main reason I went and upgrade my pre-LCI Halogen to a Bi-Xenon LCI.

Not sure if there is space for a HID bulb. If you can find a short HID bulb then it is possible to use a relay kit like Brabus uses on his LCI H8 kits.
