The bottom pic would be the only way to go IMO. Both don't look bad however.

I tried to do it when I cleared my headlights ... It didnt come out very well since I could get the LEDs to "fan" out. How many LEDs do you put in each loop?

you can't really do it on our lights because we don't have round projector beams for the xenons and so it woudl only work for the for the dayrunning lights...

Someone PM me once they get the directions. I might as well clear the corners while I'm at it.

You only use two.

I'll post directions later.

I came across them on a while ago. I just never had the balls to try it.

I used 2 but it didnt quite light up the middle no matter how I try it because of the angle. I'm pretty sure more than 2 are needed.

btw, I had the instructions from a guy who did it on his hatch but his was easier since the angle on his headlight was larger. Our high beam is narrower.

i'd say a good weekend if you already know how to open up your headlights. And we will find out how fitting that circle around our rectangular low beams will work.. I think I'm gonna try it when I eventually clear my corners...

they sell strips of LEDs that are bendable. and are sold for the sole purpose of making angel eyes.... it will save a lot of time in installation.... lemme try and find a link

having a hard time trying to find it... check out these.. they could most likely fit
http://advancedautomotiveconcepts.com/demoneyes.htm
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2441744035

the 2nd one will most likely fit. yes, it is expensive, but
1. you can probably find these for cheaper.
2. you could split a pack with someone, considering there is 4 in a pack (if put on the hibeams)
3. they ARE universal, they are just saying that it is good for BMWs bc they have circular headlights.... gotta check out the dimensions to see if it wud fit on the hibeam on the CL

SWEET!
i kinda wanna put them in my Jeep so i cud use all 4... but the circles in my headlights have a large radius....
def worth puttin in the CL tho, it will prob fit perfectly bc the high beam circle is about the same radius as a projector bulb, such as the one in e BMW
