    If I purchase the angel eyes from.... http://www.automoglow.com/access2.htm will this be the entire head lamp? It wont let me contact them. Does any one have some insite on this?

    Thanks

    I'm pretty sure you just get the rings and you have to install them on your own

    Yeah, it wouldn't be a whole new headlight housing, it would just be the rings and wiring most likely for you to install.

    ok they, when you turn on the car the day lights come on and kill the whole affect of the angel eyes. How do you get around that?

    I think Jrox sells a DRL bypass, but I think that's just for HID's. Maybe there's a way that you could change the DRL's to your angel eyes. Splice some wires together, and bam. Idk though.

    Anyone know how to properly cook the headlights to open them up? I already tried with my stock tail lights for practice since i installed the LED tails already. The result ended up being that when I tried to open up the casing, I cracked the outer shells. I don't want to do the same with my headlights. So any input on how to properly cook the headlights/tail lights would be appreciated.

    hey man, first off you cant open your tails, thats why you cracked them. the headlights are sealed differently. what i did, i baked my headlights (1 at a time) at 225 degrees for about 7-8 minutes and then just try pulling them apart. put back in for longer if need be. keep in mind to take off the screws and loosen clips and stuff. but yeah, the angel eyes are just the rings. what you could do is buy a bypass to cut your drls and then run your angel eyes to a switch, that way you can have them on whenever you want. do you have HIDS?

    Ok graet. What exactly are HIDS

    High Intensity Discharge headlamps. They're those bright white or blue or different colored headlights you see around. I'd highly recommend them, I've had 4 different HID kits over the past 2 years, and I don't think I'd ever own a car without them. They're that bright and helpful.

    Ok thanks i bought some Silvana ones fro the hardware store, there are some what bright, but since my car is blue i was hoping they would have a very light blue tint.

    The Silver Stars are bright for halogens. Compared to a lot of stock cars headlights, they're brighter. But, nothing beats HID's yet. There's a bunch of places that people on here have gone to for them. I like DDMTuning.com the most. So far, their kits have been the best that I've owned. I go through HID's like I go through gas. I can never settle, and I like to change things up. Lol.

    I bought AE's from this same company and I've had nothing but trouble from them. I had them professionally put in and wired and about 3 months after I had them the passenger side ring (smaller ring) burned out. I contact them and still haven't gotten a response back from them. So after spending 12 hours to get these in and spending over $100 on them and them not working I definitely wasn't happy. I'd honestly suggest going to another company besides AutoMoGlow .. bad customer service and parts that malfunction but then again this is just my experience.

    Question , if you install your Angel Eyes to your lancer , do they become your DRL's right away ? Or do you have to wire them ?

    Ok bear with me guys im a bit of a learner.
    from what ive gathered.

    Open them with an oven yadda yadda install the rings.
    Cut the original DRLS and wire them to the AEs. Then install a bypass switch to what is now the AEs from the old DRL wires?.

    HID lights in general are NOT necessary?

    Cause im all about the DIY methods tyo save me money.
    your help is appreciated.
