Yup, like I said thier HID converts were really well built and I never had a problem. I thought I would give them a shot since they were cheap. Right now I would say they give a similar output to the 80-90 dollar setups and have had zero problem with them so far

I'd say forget it. of all the mods you could do, this one feels like it's trying too hard.

I'd like to see a pic from the front at night to make a final decision. They seem kinda cool, albeit highly illegal.

FYI: In high school a friend of mine had blue and white strobes on the front of his 3000gt and his car was impounded. It cost him a small fortune to get his car back, minus the illegal lights.

Right now they are out of car, im just going to keep them and use them for events. I will also put them in tonight and get some pictures. My friends hate them at first then saw them at night and encouraged not to get rid of them. So, mixed reviews in general.

I've seen people with E39's with red angel eyes and they've never been pulled over for that. I wouldn't do it though... looks pretty tacky IMO

I guess its kind of like getting illegal tint. May look good but is it worth it if you get a ticket. I suppose this is a little different since its possible to reverse this quickly but still I wouldnt want to pay to make my car illegal to drive...

Saw a pair on a AW 335i last night w/ 3k yellow fogs... I wouldn't put red ones in my car, I'll happily stick to my 6k's, I'll leave it at that
