All the photos you need are there. Just keep in mind, taking photos of any lights with a camera means you have to have both units as a comparison. Showing you 1 photo vs another in different lighting, different settings, etc doesn't help. It gives you a rough idea but it doesn't show you much.

At some point you have to trust what is being told to you.

I've been using Johns HID angel eye kit since 2010, so thats almost 3-4 years I'm guessing and my angel eye rings are still clear as can be, no yellow whatsoever. Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones not sure, but this has never been an issue for me. Someone else with HID angel eyes might be able to chime in as well.

That´s what I mean I never had HID AEs, and nobody of my friends had either, but taking into account the comments of owners who use HID AEs they have no yellowing issues, or if they do than it may take several (3-4 and more years) untill something occurs. Am I right, or not?

I just wanted to share my experience with the Ice VXX lights that I just installed on my '08 550i. I ordered the lights from Tim at Umnitza on Wednesday after he explained the differences between all of the options for my car. I decided to go with the VXX. I received them on Friday. I was going to wait to install them over the weekend. I ended up installing the same day. I decided not to wait. I am far from being a mechanic, but I will tackle some DIY projects. The install was pretty straight forward. I didn't take off the headlights. I was able to get my fingers and hands in there to unplug the old h8 bulbs and get the new wiring and lights to work. Overall, it took me about twenty minutes to finish the job.

I surely think that it is difficult to judge it from an image.
I am making LED of the 10w consumption electricity now.
I contribute it with the photograph of a comparison targeted for right and left if completed.
