Hi,
Anyone know how to make LCI halogen AE brighter? As far as I know, there is no AE light bulb to replace. Anyone tried some innovative approach?

Yes. Already did so. Amber AE becomes white AE, but still feel the brightness is way too dim comparing to H8 type AE.

I believe it' a different bulb so it won't work, only LCI xenon's use h8 bulbs for ae's...
