It's Predator ICE, not Mycarr ICE>

Predator ICE was made with 5W, the rest are still 3W.

Actually just to clarify Matt, we carry the MYCARR ICE. We do not carry your branded products.

I am sure you are aware but just so the rest of the folks know, MyCarr is the manufacturer for the Predator ICE series and is the main manufacturer for a majority of the angel eye kits on the market (both branded and generic) for everything from E36, E39, E46, E53, E60 and more.

Mycarr doesn't have an ICE product. That's our naming on it.

Mycarr has an LED product, I'm not familiar with it.

They had made our ICE, they no longer make it, but it does look very similar still.
As I mentioned, it's 5W, mycarr's version is 3W.

That's interesting... from what I understand all of the pre-LCI angeleye upgrades are pretty underwhelming in brightness due mostly to the plastic tubing design of the pre-LCI angeleyes.

Anyway, I wouldn't mind seeing some properly exposed pics comparing the various models available... someone impartial needs to do a review.

I went for the Mycarr and they are white but weak. From what I've read here and on M5board, the Umnitza products aren't much better but cost a lot more (aka worse value). I really wouldn't mind being proven wrong though since I would like something which are white and as bright as LCI angeleyes on my 06.

If some manufacturers/retailers want to send me some samples, I would be happy to post a professional review with proper pics to put this ongoing "Mine is brighter than yours" to rest.

So the bottom line so far is ....

That it is safe to presume that for Pre-Lci E60's that AngeliBright V3.0 are still the brightest available ?
