Angel eye's question?

Postby Evo_Girl » Sun Mar 11, 2012 8:59 pm

Hi guys I would really like to get some of the halo angel eyes installed on my car but I have been reading a few posts and it seems really hard and like a risky job to do. So here are my thoughts. The kit costs anything between $100-$200 and then to get them professionally installed another $400-$600 so all in all it it’s going to cost anywhere between $600 and $800 and with all the risks like breaking your headlight or damaging it I was thinking of maybe just buying new headlights?

I found a pair on eBay for $600 and they seem ok but here is my question. Is it just better to get these lights or buy the kit and install it?

(Hope the link works) All help will be appreciated :)

Hey Azalea, the angel eyes do look a bit tricky to say the least haha. Those headlights look nice, I have been watching these ones for some time...

Angel eye kit should be about 60$ from the retrofit source for 4. Just did my projectors and they were pretty nice. Thinner than the automoglow ones and less noticeable once installed.
400-600 is not worth it my opinion.
I'll be putting up for sale/trade my wired up set from the vrx. Just gotta take pics etc.

I can sell you some angel eyes, and then just install yourself. Will take about half a day and some electrical knowledge

Timmo91 Those are really nice lights. Like the look and everything on them :)

Hey Daniel. Those ones are from an Australian seller in VIC so I trust it a bit more. Wouldn't feel comfortable buying something like that from an overseas seller.

And 13EZY how much will you be selling these light for?

I got a set of the latest automoglow AE's for mine for 180.. took half to 3/4 day to fit and wire myself.. Came up alright for a first effort and a lot of balls to do it myself haha. But all in all I saved about 600 on someone to install it etc and I think the slight imperfections only noticeable up very close are a small price to pay considering ur saving that much $$$.

Ps, they look great however u get them!
