How To Install LUX H8 LED Angel Eyes in a BMW 335i! (E90 3 Series)

[@anwary180]

Is it me or, i love the warm yellow angel eyes.

It's you

[@TsvetomirIvanov]

Not just you, most of my friends who drive these prefer the original one

[@bmva8263]

I love the yellow one. The car looks meaner 😡

[@esdrasdiaz7109]

they look good but look kinda funky with the headlights on

[@jameelwaniya5313]

This vid is still helping people today. Thanks mate.

[@semihyilmaz4699]

Original angel eyes looked pretty cool when they first came out.

[@austinaslink1323]

One of the first mods I did on my 135i. Crazy how much difference two bulbs can make to the entire appearance of the car.

[@jake_spence]

For real! It's one of the first things I'll do to any BMW.

[@johannes.m]

I just got done installing simular bulbs. This video really helped me alot. For anyone considering buying this I have to inform that on surtant models you have to remove the air box to be able to fit the bulbs in. I have an N53B30 and I needed to remove the air box which added a little more work but that was easy enough

[@jamesrandall-o1t]

I know this vid is 4 years old but I just did this upgrade today, damn it's not easy to get those bulbs seated!! I actually had to replace my foglights with some new Hella replacements so while I had the fender liners out I decided to get at the lights from underneath. It was definitely easier but I still had to remove one of the turbo cannisters, NO clue how you did it from the top without removing anything! Love all the vids, great stuff 👍🏼

[@scelompontshane8748]

I actually love the original yellow.. I find it very nice and unique and it make the car aggressive and original

[@j0nzies]

Just installed this as my first mod today on my 325i! Access to the left side was a pain, but so worth the struggle

[@youssefelkamash2311]

Do you mind sharing a pic of the result?

[@djcox003]

My Ziza LED angel eyes just arrived. This video is perfect timing!

[@jake_spence]

Awesome! Let me know how the Ziza bulbs look in comparison.

[@djcox003]

Just got them installed. I really like the color 6000K which looks about the same as Lux but the Ziza aren’t as bright as Lux. I say that as they are only slightly brighter than stock. Inside and outside ring are the same brightness in my 09 135i

[@jake_spence]

Good to know! Sounds like an upgrade from stock either way. Thanks for sharing.

[@arikara]

Back at it again with ANOTHER helpful video for the community man, never stop the grind 🙌🏽🙌🏽

THANK YOU! It's comments like these that keep me going.

[@jadencalderon942]

You should daily the 135i more and let us know how the motor, turbo and cooling systems handle everyday use. Thanks for all the dope content!

[@jake_spence]

I've been battling some issues with it, you'll see in an upcoming video. But once it's running good again, I'd like to drive it a lot more and show it on the channel.

[@datthang9385]

@@jake_spence hey man do these work with 335xi?

[@SteveWeltman]

Very nice video. One thing I would recommend is actually removing the vacuum canister assemblies so you have excellent access to the back of the headlight housing on the passenger side. So much easier to work in the small halo compartment like this.

[@jake_spence]

Great tip! Definitely helpful to get your hands in there.

[@johnlamon824]

@@jake_spence crippled hands and can't turn bulb in ! No room on either side ... next I guess is removing the vacuum canister on passenger side

Thanks so much for uploading this video, I have the same BMW as the one in your video with the same Yellow shade of piss angel eyes! I have bought the new bulbs and can't wait to fit them at the weekend now that I know how to!

Glad to help! You'll be glad you swapped them out lol

[@steveyoung5920]

Keep posting the videos Jake, They're awesome, Saved me a lot of rip off fees at the garage!!

[@Florian1095]

Lux are the best. Still rocking the V3s in my 1 series. They must have been installed since at least 100-150k km and are still going strong

[@jake_spence]

Awesome! I've had the same great luck. No issues in any of the cars I've installed LUX in. Shining bright years later.

[@osnowdeal]

years later, how did they end up holding up? Would you recommend getting the 8's now? Or newer ones?@@jake_spence

[@UltimateProbot]

Loved the video, excellent work. Please show us the mountain bikes you have, they look cool!!! Maybe a mini review?

[@jake_spence]

I would if they were mine! But they were just a friends who kept them in the garage. I know nothing about mountain biking.

[@jake_spence]

I'm trying! Thanks for the motivation.

[@tasosss]

Can I ask the modification that you made when you disconnected that thing so the bulb fits, what was that for?

[@Inboden69]

its not really a mod, just i placeholder to keep the wires neat and together. it frees the wire so you can tuck it if that makes sense

[@ryanw552]

Thank you so much!! I've been scratching my head trying to figure out how to fit everything within the very little space

Thanks Isaiah!

I was worried not seeing a video on these for a bit! Made me think they were damaged in shipping!

[@jake_spence]

Nope, just been super busy! Thanks again for these, I'm happy with them.

[@emirsaidov6024]

Where did you buy that dinan intake?

[@moenaboulsi23]

I dont know if anyone tried to install these yet. It's not simple whatsoever to get the lights in there. The space is limited to a 2 inch hole that you can barely fit a couple fingers in there and work blindly. I scraped my hands and still not in. Is there an easier way?

[@connorbowe2070]

My hands are cut to pieces too and couldn’t get them to click in place. Left them just rattling inside today will retry tomorrow taking that black hook out hoping that gives more room to play with

[@BBakes1]

@@connorbowe2070 Thanks guys, I thought I was the only one ho had problems working in such cramped quarters. I.m small and my hands barely fit. It did help taking out that black piece but is still as PITA. That said the video certainly helped.

[@i_read_bad_reviews]

I hate how no matter the led you use the inner one is way brighter. I use the Phillips extreme vision or racing vision I can’t remember but they are bright as hell on both rings

[@jake_spence]

Nice! So yours are more even? Is yours a 2007 or 2008? I will say that the video does a poor job capturing the true light output on mine.

[@mig_tf2323]

I don’t know how you did it. I have the exact same car and I cannot untwist the light. The space is just too tight to get enough leverage even though my hands are average sized. I can’t even screw the cover back on.

[@DavidMartinez-of3pt]

will this work for pre lci?

Can you just use h8 bulbs

[@theracersedgemedia2570]

Would they work with a 2011 E90 328xi LCI with xenon headlights?

[@badbadleroybrown650]

Was the driver side done the same?

[@sswany_]

I’m getting an adaptive headlight warning light immediately after installing these on my e82. Do these cause that? Or is the ballast somehow interfering with the adaptive headlight functionality

[@jake_spence]

It's somehow interfering. Take it back apart and try assembling it again carefully.

[@jonas84]

Could it be that especially the angel eyes of the E90 LCI xenon headlights have a problem with different brightness levels? In contrast, with the E92, but also with the E90 with halogen lamps, both rings appear almost evenly illuminated.

[@guy_daimond]

Love your energy

[@jake_spence]

Thanks for watching!

Arent those xenons?

[@freemags5837]

Did your car get a “tpms external interference” fault? Mine did, how do you fix??

Whenever I got replacement headlights for my BMW from LKQ Pick Your Part, they came with LEDs already and they look so much better than these ugly yellow angel eyes

[@SgtSorg]

does this make the car think there’s a light out?

[@jonas84]

LED, resistor, plug... everything inside this small space? Doesn‘t this get too hot?

[@mooseloose2037]

Will this work on bmw x3 e83 2008 ?

[@jake_spence]

I'm not sure, you'd have to check with LUX.

[@sebbivism]

Personally I think the new led angel eye is too bright, however really good colour temperature

[@jake_spence]

Agreed, wish the rings were more even.

[@Princessrosejoy]

Does this work for BMW 320i as well?

[@obi1701]

Heat problems ?

[@BmwolotlE90]

Its the one thing i hate about the lci models with the angel eyes, the outer ring doesnt light up evenly and is dimmer than inner ring. Pre lci lights up evenly. Other models light up fine iuno what bmw was thinking lol

[@jake_spence]

Agreed, wish it was the same... not sure what they were thinking on this model!

[@Los408]

did you replace the headlight bulb itself also?

[@jake_spence]

No, not in this video.

[@lpa187]

I did mine also like a year ago.. And I didn't have to take the little black connector/ boot you modify?

[@jake_spence]

It might fit without unclipping it, but if it fits it ships! It's only for E90, so if you have an E92 you wouldn't have to unclip it.

[@lpa187]

@@jake_spence Yah I'm on E90 honestly never noticed it when I was putting these bulbs on.. Now I'm curious and going to look at it.. Buy yah no issues on my end, everything fit good. Really tight space but my fat hands did it haha lol great video as always brother..

These ones you have are what I bought but the mechanic said they won’t work that I need the Lux Halogen ones?

[@Semaj.18272]

H8 are for the angel eye but there is low beam h7 and high beam h7 correct ! So what bulb did u use to match those rings on ur low beam

[@Hakanaksu-oi8dk]

Is it normal that the inner ring is way brighter than the outer ring??? It bothers me alot.

[@jonot8547]

its normal, no led blubs is going to change that due to how the light pipes are designed. The actual lens needs to be taken off to replace with LED rings to get that even illumination.

[@mariusbancila2702]

Personally I do not like china lights on the factory angel eyes that look awesome OEM. If I would change those, I would use completely new angel eyes that do not look like crap lighted from the above - they are not completely white and the inner ones are too bright compare to the outer ones. Cheers.

[@DaEverything1]

does the car need rewiring with the lux led bulbs or can i just replace the stock ones with the led ones with no rewiring?

Yellow light for angel eyes is more aggressive 💪 and OEM

[@MrZebbe23]

Such a shame the design on almost all of these angel eyes makes the inner ring brighter. The only BMW of this "angel eye generation" that has even light is the Pre LCI E87. My brother has an E87 and I was surprised that the PRE FACELIFT has better designed angel eyes?? They prob had to change the design on the angel eyes because it was so hard to change the bulb (extremly hard to get to, they are actually not inside the back cover of the light they are under it).

[@jake_spence]

Yeah, I know what you mean. It sucks. On the Pre-LCI E90, they were properly light but changing the bulbs sucked like you mentioned.

Now you need to match the three LEDs on the side of the headlamp assembly, and foglights as well. BTW, can you use those H8 LEDs on the angel eyes on your 135i??

The three orange LEDs on the side come from the factory as orange LEDs, they're very bright and nice. The foglights could definitely use an upgrade though. And yes, these same LUX H8s fit on the 135i, I have them installed.
