    Post Blue Angel Eyes...

    Just a few pics of some Angel Eyes I installed a couple months ago. The blue led ring turns on with the parking lights and the central fog lights are controlled independently by a switch on the dash.

    ron, i gotta say...

    i'm usually not a fan of the black wheels thing, but with the grill modifications and the inserts and black skid-plate.... yo ride is fresh.... NICE!

    oh, and where the HELL did you find those angel eyes? eveytime i try to find some they are in some honda kit or some crap, it's making me CRAZY. i wanted to install a set of white ones on my dots and a set in my headlamps! i think it would be sweet. were they expensive?

    thanks,

    They are sold for about $30 at your local auto accessory store(AutoZone, Strauss, Pep Boys), but I have yet to find em in white. They even got a little "Try Me" button. Hey Ron, was the install intense? Please describe. I've seen like 3 diferent sizes, which model # did you use?

    Thumbs up

    I would like to find some that match the color of our "horn" lights in the headlights!

    Correct me if I'm wrong....but since our parking lights say "Nissan"
    on them, wouldn't you just buy the Angel Lights for a Nissan model in the appropriate size???

    Most states outlaw the use of blue or red lights anywhere on your vehicle.

    What color are your brake lights in Florida?

    I've heard that blue and sometimes green are illegal in many states, Virginia included, but never red.

    I purchased the lights off of e-bay for around $45. Here's an e-bay link for the same model but in the color red.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33709

    They're about 3" in diameter and basically had to remove the front cladding to install. Referring to Scott's detailed hella foglights step-by-step installation procedure, I installed the lights with some modification to the cladding stock holes. Basically had to enlarge the slot cut-outs a bit to accommodate the new lights. Yet, still able to re-install the stock lights with a problem. Spliced into the stock fog light wiring to power the LED ring and ran a separate source for the central fog light. I also took apart the included switch and had to modify the small motherboard to cram all the electronics in one of the stock rectangular switches on the dash. I also made an LED indicator on the switch using an 1/8th inch acrylic dowel and polished the ends and aimed it towards the motherboard LED. This will allow me to see whether the switch is activated or not at night. Took me approximately four nights to complete the job since I had to make several trips to a nearby HomeDepot.

    Regarding the legal issues, they do offer them in color white along with blue, red and green. I chose the blue to match up with the ones on my horn lights. You can also turn on the central fog light independently which will drown out the color if you're concerned about the legalities. I've had them on at night for a few months now, and with the headlights within close proximity, the blue rings are not that noticeable at first glance. Only when you get close or have the head lights off do you really notice them at night.

    The pics don't do the lights justice as it illuminates a brilliant blue vs. the white and blue effect that shown on the pics. Don't know why the camera shows it this way.

    As for the grill kit shown, it will be offered along with the matching grill inserts for the skidplate soon.

    I was looking at the Hella Optilux 2500 about 6 months ago:

    I decided not to do it, but they can be had for around $50 online. I definitely trust Hella!
