Guys, no one has actually tried the PIAA LED bulbs for our LCI so no one knows how it is. Someone should invest $300 and install them so that we can all have a verdict. They are hard to find and are mostly sold in Hong Kong. I already had my bad experience with HID angel eyes and from fake AIBs (GP Thunder).

Who's got the ballz???
shizzle my nizzle. i need to call my uncle - he lives in HK.
maybe he can hook me up. lol

but before i buy, i want someone else to try.

Funny how the OP wants AE's that are as bright as LCI AE"s, yet jcool (an LCI owner) still wants something brighter than his LCI stock AE's.


I just want my AE's to say bright the whole time and not dim when you go from parking lights or DRL's to headlights.....

I think it all comes down to daytime visibility. The stock AE's are highly visible at DT. I'm sure all LCI owners want the same visibility but in White.

So I still have not found the answer. What makes the angel eyes different between non-lci and LCI? Can I just upgrade to a very bright bulb??
