Finally replaced the H8 bulbs with Cree 80W LEDs.
Due to the alignment of the spigots on the LED housing, I had to remove the fans, after checking with the supplier this was okay. Still a very tight fit though. Lots of knuckle skinning involved.
Difficult to take pictures in day time as the refresh rate of the LED seems to be the same as my phone camera, so they appear off in half the pictures!
Anyhoo, here's the results. I'm very pleased with them.

- Both Cree in the dark. As always the pictures don't do justice. But plenty bright.

Top job, I was just about to post this thread onto your other thread about these, then noticed you're the same person!!
Can I ask where you got these from?

Look much better, need to do this to my wife's Z.
Was it these bulbs? http://www.xenonbulbs.co.uk/BMW-ANGEL-E ... ?search=H8
What do you mean about removing the fans?
Thanks,
Tom
