I had those on my 2011. I liked them except hey were very bright compared to the DRLs at night. Fit was good.

Nice, I was thinking about doing my eyelids LED as well, think they would match up?
And my headlights are Xenon, so will the sidemarkers be brighter than those?

Those look absolutely terrible. They're almost as bad as angel eyes on non BMW cars.

If they look terrible that sucks!

In saying that on the subject of angel eyes on non BMW's here's my two cents.

I dont like the look of angel eyes ANYWAYS.
BUT.
I do not understand why people think things are supposed to be SPECIFIC to a car brand... If you like stock keep it stock, it doesn't make it a SIN for someone else to do it on their car... Some people enjoy the best of both worlds?

Just my bit...

Yeah because they don't flow with the DRL's at all...What's angel eyes have to do with a LED stip ?

I was giving him a sense of how bright the side markers were compared to led/xenon bulbs/ led eyelids. I'd love to see your C

Personally I think they look pretty mean on your car.
Nicely done I have ordered them haha

And Mixed Fruits I have! And I'm going to tint the stock ones for sure. And see which look best

I used to have the smoked side markers with LED bulbs and after a rock chipped on of them I switched to the LED ones you have posted here.

I loved both. On my car it matches the LED perfectly, not bright at all. I think it looks great either way. The LED I had with the smoked were actually brighter than the LED ones posted.

I do have a 2012 so they match up nicely with the LED DRL.

I am thinking on changing the OEM Markers but cant find what I am want. I don't want anything that fancy but more like the OEM clear lenses. Is there anything like that out in the market?
