WANTED! -> Angel Eyes PICS!
Here's the thing, i want to get angel eyes for my 06 TL but dont know if anyone has these install already cause i cant seem to find them on the forums anywhere...
Here's what i am looking for. from Umnitza.com the Predator Orion v2 LED Angel Eyes - How would they look on our TLs and if anyone would care to share their pics of angel eyes.
or
The Thin line Angel Eyes from Umnitza.com for the 06 TLs and if anyone can provide pics!
According to Umnitza the LED ANgel would fit our Tls but i they dont have enought photos for me to compare them. However our Headlight guy JnC said that the LED ANgel Eyes would block out lightout put...if anyone has them installed if they can post up pics of how they look liek and how accurate of a fit the LED would be to our rings on our HIDs.
THANKS!

Had to dig these pictures out from when I first came across this kit.
Its a great product with very poor fitment.
I can install these but wont be able to live with the fact as to how much light output they block. Manufacturer says it blocks 20% output, I'll let you guys be the judge.

Hey Bforbrian,
how are your halos wired to turn on? With the parking lights? DRL? Separate switch?

Well that was my old set of type-s headlights that were wired to parking lights. Then I wasn't too fond of the fact that they were ALWAYS on when my headlights were on, just wasting away CCFL life.
My second set of type-s headlights had them wired to a separate switch.
The pictures you see are indeed umnitza angel eyes.

We have a lot of threads about angel-eyes, lol. I knew Brian probably has a ton of pics of the rings, I was just waiting for him to chime in.
The new rings are bright but I see that as the only advantage. They are TOO thick IMO. I agree with JnC they could block output. They just don't look like they belong in that housing. Not a fan.
The rings Brian and I have had on our cars looks WAY better IMO. It is thinner, true. But that is more my taste. It looks just right. Bright enough to see at dusk but not blingy bright to detract attention from the rest of the car. It has an elegant understated glow that just goes with the lines of the car. I also personally like the way the rings are in a bit of the U-shape vs. the O-shape. Evil ol skool BMW-esque.....but that is the only BMW thing about it. I don't understand people who think this looks BMWish otherwise?
I know many have gone the audi-style route with the white LED strips. They are OK. I am using amber strips just for signals. I think the rings are a nicer look. And rings and white strips together are a bit overkill. Oh yeah by the way, I've had them 3 yrs, running strong still. Great mod, Do it!

Rocky, Brian show us some close ups of the angle eyes off and during the day. How are they mounted? How clean is it? The main reason I don't like the thin ones IS because they aren't full circles and you can see the wires coming from them. Sure the LED halos are thicker and would block some of the hid output if installed there. My installation was never intended for a daytime or dusk running light but rather an accent to the hid's at night. The daytime runners are off when the headlights are on.
I love the way they look at night, the match is nearly perfect! and the fact that they look stock during the day. It looks factory. I've only had them for like a month and I can't tell you how many necks I've broken. Lol!

Had to do some real digging to find these pics in my million albums.. lol.. but as for mounting they are glued onto the bezels and even from up close they are pretty clean. Couldn't find a picture up close without them on
I hope these suffice?
This link is the same link as the last picture, but 1600x1200, look at the picture close up and tell me how clean you think that is I believe rocky was the one who worked on this specific set for me so go to him for advice!

I'm about to do this project to my 06 with Type-S headlights. As far as wiring, I was going to wire the halos to turn on with the key in the "on" position. But now I'm leaning more towards wiring to the parking brake sensor. That way they only turn on when the parking brake is disengaged. Has this been been done by anyone?

Brian i like the light output, thinness, and even light disbursement throughout the tube.
i just cant get over the fact that they are only a 3/4 lit halo! if you can call it that, its more like a horse shoe. almost like the top part of it is burnt out. plus the those wires! maybe its just me i guess. alot of people seem to like them.

Haha, and this is where difference of opinion comes into play; you seem to like the full circle while i like the U shaped since it looks like it's angry, not glaring.
I'm sure you've seen my thread regarding my fiber optic angel eyes i'm making from scratch.. this gives me 100% full control on the shape of the eye I want; in other words, I can choose if it's a full circle or u-shape, or even an angled u-shape (which i'm leaning towards, like you see on g37 tail lights). Full circle for HID bezel, and angled U-shape for the DRL bezel.
But in the end, we both got what we wanted, and we are satisfied.
