diy angel eyes

http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/549073
remove your headlights by doing:
1st remove your corner lights one screw holding them in and them wiggle them out.
2nd pop the grill off
3rd there is 4 bolts holding the headlight on
there are two of them on the side where you took the corner light off the other two are behind the headlight you'll have to mix and match a 1/4 inch drive socket and (10mm) and a small extenshion
4th after you get the headlights off the car there are 5 little clips you'll use a flat head screw driver to pop them off
5th remove the headlight bulb from the headlight
6th pre heat your oven to 250 degress
7th put the headlights in the oven for 10-15 mins
8th when the time is up use a flathead screw driver and separate the glass lens from the housing be careful not yo chip the glass len
9th next let everything cool off
10th drill a small hole in the top of the headlight
11th use silicone and glue it bottom of the angel to the bottom inner corner of the glass len
12th after it dries reheat the glass and the housing and put the glass back onto the headlight assembly
13th next you are goin to splice into the corner light
14th on the angel eye there is a pos. and neg wire
use wire taps to attach them to the corner light red from angel eye to red on the corner light and black on the angel eye to the orange on the corner light
15th re install everything silicone the whole that you drilled in the headlight where you passed the angel eye wire thru
and the angel will come on when you turn your park light on and when you have your headlights on you wont see them and the pictures in my cardomain site for some reason the camera makes them look blue but they are really white buy the white ones from ebay

Indeed this is a project i might just have to take on, thought about it awhile back but didn't know how they'd look with stock headlights, i'm impressed.

Haha I figured a few idiots on here would become all emotional to my OPINION. I forgot most of the 4th gens now cater to RICE. This is a ricey mod, and who ever installs this trash doesn't deserve a 4th gen.

I do not consider having Angel Eyes "ricey".
But I do feel that they should ONLY be seen on BMWs.

A man's hard work should not be considered trash..
Everyone has different opinions..so let's not be hatin' on members just because they tried modding their car according to their taste.

kingrukus dont be a ******* man, you stated your opinion, dont fuel the anger just for your amusement. I agree with kingrukus and bluec, angel eyes should only be seen on PROJECTORS

Ok first off, the angel eyes on the BMWs are not blue. They are smaller, and they are around projectors. The way they should be. I never said anything was rice, I said it didnt look good in my OPINION on a maxima with a reflector housing.

If I may interject on this little argument surrounding opinions...

jdm, which auction did you win on eBay?? I'd like to pick up some angel eyes (because I think they look cool, relax eveyone) but I can't find any specifically for Maximas on eBay...

If you have a link or the eBay ID of who you bought it from, that'd really help

Ok first off, I cant even understand you.

You're an idiot. So what if your "daddy" owns one? You've seen one, woopdeedoo. So have I. Does that automatically give me more knowledge about them? NO. Blue angel eyes on a Maxima are rice. That is my opinion, as well as several other's opinions. Period.

Oh, and, one more thing. You're 8 years older than me -- talk like it.

Ok then, take a picture of your maxima and your "dad's" bmw next to each other, both with the angel eyes on. We'll see which looks better, and im sure yours will look ALOT different color wise compared to the bmw.

I have some OEM angel eyes. First off, they are ment to go on the BMW projectors. They fit together perfectly. The projector however is way to large to fit into out headlights without pulling our hair out modding them. Do i think angel eyes look good, yea on a BMW. Ive seen them on a Max before and they looked good also but were not blue. They were the stock white color. You can also make your own somehow (think its on VWVortex). I think they will look much better if they were around projectors and the blue was eliminated. But good job none the less.
