Oh, God, please take them off.

edit: what the hell are angel eye HIDs? Something tells me it's a combination of weak LED "angel eyes" and blue "ricer" headlight bulbs (this apparently equals angel eye HIDs.)

i had a set of the angel iz they are legal at least mine where but like some people have said the low beams on mine burnt out real quick. but when they did work right they were bright as shit bc they use a 100 watt bulb.

and thats why your bulb probably burned out.. MOST US produced cars use 55w/65w from a 12v source.. yes its brighter buts only down the line will burn out bc it cant handle all those watts.

hah, fuckem. let them burn their headlights out over and over again and not know why.

nothing says "i want my headlight wires to catch on fire" like running double the stock wattage in a stock harness.


any "-style" products are bound to be crap, whether it's "altezza-style" taillights, "bmw-style" headlights, or "blitz-style" body kits.

silly ricers never learn.

the wires that i used was not a stock wiring harnesses they were upgraded and 100w bulbs is what was originally in my lights.if i used a 55w bulb you cant see the road so thats why i had to cont to use 100w bulbs.
