Angel eyes

Is there a set of these headlights for the 5th Gen Maxima? I see they have them for the Sentra and off course, Civics. If not, is there some sort of mod that can be done for them to fit the Maxima?

Thanks

Yeah, that's the stuff. Who made those? And when/where can I get some.

So what's the consensus then? Is there a set of angel eyes that will fit the 02-03 HID headlights? One that is fiber, not LEDs, and goes all the way around?

You are correct. I had a chance to buy some off of a totalled 540i back home for $100. I wasn't sure they would fit, and I couldn't see them on because the battery was dead.

I regret that now of course... I thought $100 was a rip off, but in hindsight the kits I've searched for are over that. I've found a few sets online, as aftermarket; but I can't find/remember the links for the life of me...

EDIT: The $100 was for the entire headlight assembly pair, with the pass side slightly cracked. They were projector style, but the angel eyes were removable. I think it was an E39, but don't hold me to it.

that first pic he posts is a photocropped image. the others however seem prety real, although he doesnt show them as being lit just the light housing installed. and he says you can get the stuff for $75, thats seems a bit low.

i would think this whole process of adding the angel eyes to a 5 gen should be very easy, well the 2002 and 2003 more so with the projectors.

Wow that first picture is screaming photocrop. I didn't even notice actually.

There are tons on ebay for 92-95 civics and E36/46 Bimmers. I want a fiber kit over and LED kit, but the LED kits are running around $150.

I was planning on doing the orange parking light cover removal and angel eye upgrade at the same time. It's not fun getting the 2k2 housings apart.

They weren't offered in the 2k2 330ci I was looking at. I think they must have been aftermarket for a 330.

Here's some aftermarket ones for the 99+ 3 series.
