You can send me one for testing. I will pay if it fit the Z4

I have a spare Z4 front left headlight housing. I would be willing to send it over to you for testing in exchange for a discount? I would like the housing back once testing is done though....

Let me make it clear, the LUX H8 does not fit Z4 angel eye. I currently have a LUX H8 6000K on my car with electrical tape around the light. They are working on the next batch 6500K to have more light in the outter ring for 3-series ONLY and is available to ship out on 3/08/10

Have someone tried HID Xenon conversion kit with H8 bulbs?
Brightness and color (6000K - 12000K)will be no problem.
The problem is need to find a slim ballast to put everything inside.
and forget the LED, this is cheaper

They produced a new version that would fit the e89. That's what we are waiting on for the tester to complete and confirm the fitment. The older Lux H8 does not fit (well) like you and many others have confirmed already.

This is not correct - the new version of LUX H8's are re-designed to fit differently and should fit without a problem now. I will have new pictures posted soon.

From my view the inner rings are brighter than the outside ones
May be the fiber optic for outside rings are places in different location, not opposite side as the location of the LEDs

Is this just for the angel eyes? Do you have to get other bulbs for the daytime driving lights?

Angel eyes act as daytime driving lights unless you're talking about low beams...

Oh, the high beams I guess since the low beams are the Xenons. Is that all we have to change to get the WHITE light look?

Z4 is equipped with Bi-xenons which means low beams and high beams are both from the xenon. And, yes all we need to do is change the angel eyes to make the white light look.
