BMW’s Angel Eye Design – Why Inner Rings More Brighter

Posted on by

For those of you who own a BMW, you may wonder why when you replace your OEM turn signal bulbs with LED’s, the outer rings do not light up as evenly as the inner rings. This is a result of the design of the housing itself and not the bulb. Both the outer and inner rings receive light from the same source, but the only difference is that the outer ring’s light has to travel a much further distance compared to the inner rings. LED’s are brighter and more efficient than traditional incandescent bulbs, but the only downside is that LED lights do not project their light as far as incandescent bulbs do. This is the reason why the OEM bulb can light up the outer rings much more evenly since the light can project further and travel a longer distance.

Our LED angel eye bulbs will provide you a nice upgrade over the color and output in the inner rings. The outer rings will still be lit up, but it may not be as noticeable during broad and direct daylight due to the design of the housing. However at night or on an overcast day, the rings will be very noticeable and be quite a head turner.

This may bring up the question of why do the newer BMW models have amazingly bright LED rings that can be seen during direct sunlight so distinctly; this is due to the design change of the newer headlights. The latest BMW vehicles come with LED-lit angel eyes from factory and each ring is powered by LED(s) instead of using one bulb to light up two rings. Since each ring is individually lit, the light is more focused and concentrated which allows the ring to be lit evenly and with a lot of output.

Egg Yolks Belong in Breakfast, Not Headlights or Tail Lights

Posted on by

If you own a newer vehicle, you have probably noticed that the turn signal housing in the headlight or tail lights are clear which allow the orange/yellow bulb to show which can be quite an eye sore. Aesthetically, having a clear colored housing with an "egg yolk" look is not appealing as it does not flow with the rest of the housing.

Fortunately for you all, we offer replacement LED bulbs that still shine orange/yellow, but will not have the unpleasant egg yolk look when the light is off; instead the turn signal housing will blend into the rest of the housing.

Not only will these lights be aesthetically pleasing to the eye, they can also stay within the legal guidelines of the road which state that turn signals and indicators must be amber/yellow. These lights are plug and play and very easy to install, simply remove the original bulb and replace with the LED turn signal lights. Please do keep in mind that whenever you change your turn signals to LED, load resistors will be required to allow the lights to flash at the same as stock; since LED bulbs draw less power, the turn signals will blink as though a bulb is out.

As car enthusiasts, we all take notice at the smaller details that you see on other vehicles on the road; for example, Audi’s and their revolutionary approach to LED daytime running lights as a strip underneath the headlights. Ever since that style of light was introduced into the market, all kinds of car enthusiasts have wanted to mimic this style of light for their own cars, whether it was an Audi or not.
