Well I've had my angel eye kit in my trunk for the past 2 months and finally yesterday I had them installed. So my big dilemma was to decide on who would be the one to install them and I would trust. So I get on the phone with Matt from Um-nitza and speak to him and ask him where should I get the kit installed by my area of New York City. Matt is very honest and tells me, I don't trust anyone in New York but I would recommend taking a drive to Maryland and having this person John install it who has done many BMW's but this would be his first Maxima ever. So I speak to John and we set-up the time and date which was yesterday. Man am I so happy that I took the three hour drive, John did an awesome job especially for it being his first time on a Maxima. Here is a picture of the final product

Very sweet ride, I love the angle eyes aswel

 

They look good. But I've been wondering about one thing. Why does the outer cable install inside the lamp housing and the inner one install outside of the lamp housing? Wouldn't it look better if the cables installed either both in or both outside of their repective housings? I haven't seen these in person so I may be way off base here.

 

welcome to the club man....
I love my angel eyes...
great work

 

Well I went with JTMAX03 to have these installed and thats the only way they look good, they do stick out on the high beam circle but it looks really good in person and I guess due to the size of the ring thats the only way they can be installed correctly and never fall out.

 

looks awesome man, i wish i could get those

 

How much did the install cost if you dont mind me asking?

 

$200 install.

 

I was wondering JTmax, how does these lights work? Does the Angels turn on with the HID lights? i just want to know how they work. They look nice though. Mad props to you on that.

 

If I ever get some $$$ I wanna get those. Maybe after the car's paid off. :sigh:

J.

 

looks real good man, 3 hours isnt really that bad especially when your getting a quality job out of it

 

The angel eyes are wired with the parking lights so they are on in the Auto,parking and headlight position. Yes worth the three hour drive.

 

 

Where in Maryland did you get them installed? I ordered my AE kit from Umnitza and waiting on them to come in.

 

U can install them yourself...
Its easy...just takes time

 

how much did john charge for the work?

 

how much do the lights run themselves??

 

$190

 

hmm 390 for angel eyes.... Isn't that a bit pricey?

 

LOL are u serious? thats not bad. i should find out if anyone can do them in boston area.

 

i just dont see spending that much on some show-off little circles around my headlights.... I mean they look great and all but not for that much

 

so what price would be good for you besides free??

 

190 isn't that much...if you do it yourself...
Its really not that hard

 

yours look hott too blkmax. how long did it take you and did you have a write-up?

 

I don;t have a write up
I followed everything on
www.umnitza.com
They have a movie on there and it makes it really easy to follow and they also have a write up on it too

 

Its not that hard, it was just better to leave it to someone who knew. $390.00 is not that bad.

 

thats what i was thinking 390 isn't bad for a nice job...

 

I think it is arrow head Maryland. when u pass the jersey turnpike it is 35 minutes away.

 

chigga if you find someone anywhere in mass and get good results, lemme know. Im not really keen on any of the shops inmy area (worcester).

 

I suppose Im retarded, but when I checked the Umnitza site they only listed BMW (and a few lexus) model types. Does our 5th gen max use the same kit? BTW JTMax, it looks sweet. Im hoping to be following suit.

 

I finally got around and put angle eye's in my bimmer

 

Hey guys
We have installers in most parts of the country. Guys that are very capable, although John is definitely one of the best out there.

So, we have a couple of new developments to report:

1) Why aren't the rings on the site? Well, unfortunately, time delays being what they are, we've been slow to update. We have updated it now. So, you can just go to the www.umnitza.com and select DDE.

2) Pricey = Pricy = not ricey In reality, paying $390 for this proves that you want premium products on your car. But more importantly, going to the correct installer will ensure the correct work is performed. What price good service?

3) I don't see the point of spending $5000 on a diamond ring for my wife, she won't wear it except on special occassions, but hey, she likes it

4) :rant on: Maxman2000, with all due respect please con't compare yours to the DDE Gen V. There has been a rash of knockoff products ever since Hella came out with theirs on the E39 5-series. Yours are made by DEPO, and are a poor example of what a quality healdight should look like. Looking closely at those, you'll see wavy glass, wavy reflector material, rattling in the headlight on most of them, and poor wiring. I'm sorry, we're on a personal rant against those crappy headlights becasue a) we retail the OEM replacement ZKW b) we find that customers appreciate value c) we don't want to support knock off artists. :rant off:

5)Look at the map below, we have installers in all parts of the country.

 

I did my own install

 

Actually, Boston says tentative. We actually have one there.

 

give mad props to ppl who can do it themselves...
so i give myself mad props...
haha

 

bah, it's not that hard
