I've never understood the attraction, but each to their own.

It's nothing at all like that.

Looks great if you ask me. You will have to come along to one of the meets so I can see it in person. I want to do my angel eyes but no idea which way to go, I don't want something that is too over powering and looks like a blob of light. I want to see how it looks during the day too. How much did it cost you and did you throw any codes?

No codes - as far as I know. $72 incl. shipping.
Could have got them cheaper on eBay but wanted to get them from someone I could trust... - Harlequin Quote:

Not that either. It looks a lot more like your mother, if you know what I mean.

Damn, I thought the one on the right was the upgrade. They both look better than my halogens.
Cheers, Alf

Hillarity in the facial analogies! Maybe its like this then: 99% of people wont notice that mole (or give a shit), but if its on your face, and it bothers you - then you'd want to fix it. Last edited by Unkie; 04-13-2011 at 07:50 AM.. |

Yikes, you could have gotten like 3 sets for $72! The look good and are cheap enough to try out as a mod. I honestly didn't mind the stock look, but Jeef Beef was getting a set of GPs so I thought I might as well just jump on the bandwagon.

I have them as well. Big difference in person. Going from brownish/yellow to white.

lol above... I have some GPs I didn't like.. not bright enough during the day. I instead chose the HID angel eye option with brightness equivalent to staring directly at the sun.

Yeah, I know. Saw several sets the same on eBay for around $15-$20 but all overseas sellers and I wanted to get them fast and from a reasonably local source.

Yup. Took about 4 minutes per side.
3 of which was spent putting the covers back on. That's the only tricky bit. JLevi have a how-to video on YouTube. I highly recommend watching it first. - Harlequin |

Its not that visible during the day... I'd wait for someone to release a kit that makes it look like the LCI e92 or LCI x5's whitish blue angel eyes...
