The package comes in a pair. But this is not for main head lights. This is a H8 socket. Its for the Angel Eye. It might fit the fog lights since the stock one is using H8 socket also.

But if you are talking about head lights. The low beam is using D1S Bulb.

Ok now I am confused. To make things simple, I want my lights to look just like yours. I dont need the fog lights as I dont have them anymore with the M kit. So what do I purchase?

Just to clarify. You want to change your Angel Eye (daytime running light) or your low beam head lights ?

What did you do to yours? Just the Angel eye correct? Or did you do both to match? It would look wierd to have one in yellow and the other in bluish/white. Sorry but I am totally blur. I love how yours look in a few post above.

I did the LED Angel Eye. I have a 8000K HID Kit installed on my Fog light. Also a 8000K D1S HID Bulb for my low beam head lights.

But I think you are asking for the Angel eye (daytime running light). So
Get this is ok.

It really depends on your car. It will not cause electrical problem.
The bulb will work but it might show the error code on your dash thats it.
That bulb has the correct voltage. Don't worry your car will not blow up lol.

You only need one pair. A box comes with 2 bulbs. Confirm with seller just to be safe.

No no no........
Each side has 2 rings, but you only need one bulb for each side.
You only need one bulb to run two rings on each side.

Check out this details post, it has pictures on how to change it.

mbworldz: Love the color on ur AE, they are very nice. I know its hard to capture the true color in camera, but in person the AE should be less blueish right?

I saw these lights in HK on sale, but was hesitating to installed them.

1. Heat is really bad in HK, summer 36+ on the road with buses and other cars on the road. The heat housing IMO is not good enough compare to like MTECH LED lights (aluminum housing) for 3 series E90 model. Heard others that this model melted in the angel eye socket area.

2. Others have had error codes as well after 2 months, keep us posted on error codes if any. Hopefully you won't have any.

Our 7er uses the same H8 AE bulb as E92, there are tons of info in the 3er section. Others should look into those forums to see which solution is best for their own needs.

PS: Wondering if E92 lighting has any input
