Hi all,
I had previously tried using the GP Thunder 7500k H8 Bulbs for my E60 LCI angel eyes, and it turned out a bit out of sync. The inner circles were bright White, while the outer circles were yellowish! also they werent that bright.
I just came across these bulbs on ebay, and am wondering if i can use this for the Angel Eyes in the LCI's. Or would this give me iDrive errors?
Link to the ebay sale is :

They seem real bright, and its a H8!
Thanks a lot!

aw shucks! 
Hmm... any guesses why the GP Thunder H8 bulbs are showing 2 different color in each of the rings? its looking very funny, having one ring as yellow and another as white!

the one bulb/light source is dispersed thru both rings (inner to outter) so the outter rings get less light = less white....
