White LUX Rings

I just completed installing my White LUX Rings from mds, They appear to be lighter/less bright than the stock rings. Does anyone else with LUX Rings seem to notice the difference? But, then again it is still relatively bright outside, I will wait until complete darkness to take photos on the digi.

Well, anything will look bright as hell in complete dark, i.e. nighttime!!

Take a pic now and see! Heres a cloudy afternoon shot of my Brex:

Was the LUX unit straight? Did you install the black cover correctly and tightly? Did you touch the led at any point? its probably your imagination, wait until dark and check them out again. They are definitely bright than PMBs

Finally took pictures at night, and you can really see the difference between the stock and LUX Rings. LUX Rings are good shit.

These headlights are really blinding, I feel bad for the people in front of my when I am driving at night.

They look great. At least the people will move out of your way when you come up behind them.

They look nice and are clean white. How much were they? I'm still pretty happy with $30 for PMB's.

I wouldn't want to have "blinding" headlights. It's dangerous to oncoming traffic and might get you a handful or ashtray change tossed from cars in driving front of you.

Not bad. It still beats the cost of Brex or PIAA's.

Its not BLINDING... the light does not shine forward at all, just the angel eyes are uilluminated. Its not dangerous at all and purely cosmetic.
