You have to custom make them. Are you looking for a light source or something more subtle like shield painting?

Craigslist, I found a guy who can get oracle angel eyes cheap from craigslist. He's gonna install halo eyes, black housing, change HID's, and clear the amber signal to clear this saturday . Search those local services for shops who might have some, or just buy them online (Oracle) and either install yourself or ask around for shops who could install it.

no you cant get real demon eyes from craigslist. real demon eyes require opening the headlight and unbolting the projector to paint the cutoff shield. and for a brighter look, you can add colored leds in the projector. most people confused demon eyes and angel eyes

Just remember to look up what colors are legal for your area. Blue and red are typically a no-go.

^ Correct

If you do blue or red hook them up to a switch so you can turn them on and off whenever you want.

I would go with a shield paint as opposed to the LED route. They will eventually burn out then you're going to have to open your headlights and replace the LED's.
This is what I'm thinking of doing with my next set of headlights. This guy made a custom shield to be placed in the bowl of the projector to really make the color pop.

Here are a few other pics of the set up:

Sorry still new to modding, I thought Angel eyes are the same as Demon eyes. Can someone explain the difference?

^look at the pictures!!!!!!

I have no clue about headlights either.
but what I gather is that Demon eyes have RED in them. Hence why its CALLED THE DEVIL!!!!!!!!

Angle eyes are ONLY the HALO around the light.

Demon eye are basically installing an LED in the projector to reflect off the bowl allowing the projector to be lit up as an accent. You will need to drill a hole into the projector to achieve this. The heat from the projector will cut the life span in half that's why I advise you to not do that and just do the shield painting.

Angel eye are basically a ccfl ring or led rings attached to the shroud to achieve the BMW look.
