BET530, my friend has this upgrade and i must say they arent that bright :thumbsdown:

BET530, contrary to the DIY article, you don't actually need to remove that 8mm bold completely... just loosen it a couple of turns and slide the light housing out. I just did this myself and had no issues other than a bit of careful wiggling to get the housing out and in. There is another DIY around that has better instructions... see if you can find it.

For Pre-LCI cars none of the upgrades are that bright... it's due to the light tubing used to carry the light for the AE's and not so much a function of the bulb/LED brightness.
