Laser Light Video

This is the first laser light video I have been able to find on the X5.

You can see it pop on at speed and light up the road and then turn off when cars approach.

He says it looks more dramatic in person.

I still don't get it. I see exactly the same thing if I put on the LED brights manually at lower speeds. I really can't tell the difference between the Auto high beams (laser at speed) and the manual (supposedly always LED). I've gone back and forth at speed dozens of times. Looks exactly the same. It'd be nice if the HUD popped up a message that said the friggin' laser beams were on.

That said, whatever I'm using in both manual and auto at speed is plenty bright enough for me. Works incredibly well all around.

Too me it just seems like regular high beams in any car that has them. The only thing that I have noticed is that the beam patter is kind all over the place and not one smooth beam like it used to be from a one projecter HID system in the past...
