It's one bulb per reflector, you can take a peek from the front of the headlight on each reflector toward the top there's a small bulb holder. Not as bad since it's w/ the opening of the main H7 bulb it's just not visible from the back opening 'cuz it's under the housing.

Thanks for that KAF I'll have a look this weekend although I seem to remember that it is still tight in that area unless you have small hands. Is there one or two bulbs per each headlight assembly?

If you are just looking for a cheap way of making them look less yellow, these products should be considered.

Dayam might have to pay a 10% charge to return the piaa's? What a jip! Anyhow finally placed the order for angelibright, and hoen xenon match, getting my windows tinted, HOW MANY OF YOU GUYS GOT PULLED OVER FOR TINTING THE FRONT??? and then lastly maybe one 12 sub in the back? Any suggestions on subs?

by the way will post pics of the car once i get a chance...i know for most that would have been one of the first things they did, but dayam work is keepin me busy...

Hey Wanton - Update your sig to let us know what kind of car you have and what mods. Also, let us know where you're from. If you're not sure how to go about that, let us know and we'll help. Or just do a search on signature or play around under My Controls.

Looking forward to seeing your pix and welcome to E60.net!

We are going to be introducing a newer High Output model that will not just have an updated 5W bulb but also will have the necessary and required driver to make sure it's brighter.

As a result, we are offering pre-order pricing again on the ICE modules we currently have in stock with a coupon code "ICESALE".

The high output module is predicted to be $299.
