I know that and it is exactly what I mean. Flash high beans = Halogen bulbs 7500K
High and Low beans = Xenon bulbs 8000k

Thank you, really thanks a lot Alex!!
I can order 7500k .
Do you have others PIAAs, before 7500 ?
4700k, for example ?

I'm wondering if 7500k do less light than 4700k, because I would like to fit it also on Mini Cooper S, that haven't bixenon and it use H7 like high beams .


Second thing : your 8000k HID are 35W or 50W ?
They make better light than original 4500-5000k ?
Do you know if exist 50w xenon suitable for 5er ?
Bye!

Hi Great Attila,

We moved on december. The new house is taking a lot of our time!

Santa didn't bring the new shoes yet ( 21" Hamann's for the M5 and 19" 167's for the 1er) :'(

And you are right I took the pics with the Sony F828.

Forte Abraco,

Alex

Maybe it will appear less light but the look is much better.
