Whatsup everyone,

So yea after a week of impatiently waiting for my Rdash halo bulbs, they finally come! I was so excited to go outside and install them, and after an hour of labor/cutting my hands on the housing they were installed... Now at this point I felt a sense of great achievement being that this is my first install mod on my e60. Sadly that happiness soon faded once I turned on the lights and realized THEY SUCKED! For starters they are soooooo dim, in daylight they are virtually invisible :thumbsdown: and honestly after seeing a few new 5ers on the road i am very jealous their halos are far brighter than our e60s.... Now my question is who is running mtecs? any input as to daytime brightness? honestly at this point i feel as though thos OSS halos are the only way out..... but i dont have the luxury to leave my car sitting without headlights for 2 weeks

 

You're in NJ. If you are willing to spend the money, contact nigxdoof to see if he can do a quick turn around to do the Orions for you. He's in New York, so not terribly far away.

 

mtech - daytime pics ... if you are comparing e-60 AE's to f10 AE's you may be reaching. The f10 angel eyes are UBER superior. But, I am happy with mine 4 now ...

 

Could of told you that, m-tech 2 is much better than them. I HIGHLY recommend orions, best mod I've done on my car

 

any pics?

 

It's much easier to pop the headlights out...I could take my whole headlight out in a matter of minutes!

 

I guess this is kind of a give or take kind of thing. I installed the RDash white LED upgrade bulbs and like the quality for the price. I have no radio interference like some statements I had read and Im so glad to get rid of the god awful "manilla folder" looking factory angel eye color, regardless of how bright they are. IMHO and being a NEWB my .02 probly aint worth .01 to anybody here but I didnt buy my E60 to have the brightest angel eyes on the block! If I wanted to compete with the local honda "my lights are brighter than yours" crew I would have bought just that, a HONDA. Reminds me of the dbags rolling around in broad daylight with their headlights on just to show how cool their $45 HID bulb kit is....

 

The ICE Lite are 3X brighter than the RDash ones. Take a look at those if you want plug and play.

Or you can get the Orion built into your lights and that's the best option, but also the most difficult.

 

Get HIDS, its the only way. I can drive with just my AE's on at night, thats how bright mine are.

 

If he's using RDash, that means he has Pre-LCI. No HID AE.
