yes they fit right onto the stock 5.5 gen headlights.

umnitza is the company, dde is the style of lights (Daylight Demon Eyes). they're not two separate companies my friend.

and MAN THEY LOOK SICK!

Hey can you post some pics with your headlights turned on with the DDE's? Just wondering how it looks. Thanks.

P.S. Your DDEs look so nice. I'mm really debating if I should get one. Wish they were like yours.

Maybe it's the camera, or maybe like you said, one is brighter then the other. But for some weird reason, according to the pics, it seems like 1 of your angel eye is green and one is blue.

DDE's look awesome. If you continue to have problems with uneven brightness, I'd recommend hard wiring the rings (cut off the connectors, solder them together, and use heat shrink tubing). I've had no issues since doing so.

the inner ring of the drivers side is more of a HID look with a blueish white, and the rest of the 3 tings are white, but originally they were all white, then one was purple, then one didnt work, it was the cold that got to them i think and if not im guna go with what housecor said and hardwire them, i just didnt have ne heatshrink tubing at the time only the connectors they came with, but any1 that is afraid to do this, i was an amateur at stuff like this and i made out fine, with some help from a friend, and props to HOUSECOR's site which i would have been in the dark without his very detailed instructions, by the way thankyou housecor for the how to, and keep updating ur site with more, it is very helpful, the next thing im gonna take on is changing fog lights, im going to go buy sum auto ramps after scool today

i almost never use my headlights (even though i got 6000k bulbs lol) so all i have is ddes and fogs

i have past many many cops and none of them have said anything...

i have past many state troopers and they said nothing

from far away, the DDES light up the whole headlight, so people think the headlights on until they get up closer

which method did you use to take off the headlight case? Baking it or using a blow dryer? Just wondering cuz I can't cook worth $hit so I'm worried about baking it. But would like to know if the blow dryer trick works just as good. Tight work by the way!

I'd suggest what housecor said about hardwiring the wires together. I did this but still have purple rings in 1 headlight, which is probably due to the extreme cold.

They look great otherwise.

theres no way the blowdryer wuld work, i cooked my headlights for like 30 mins and they were hard enuff to open, my rings r ocasiconally pruple but only wen im on acc power not wen the engine is running, i think they just need a lot of juice, maybe a grounding kit would help the purple ring problem?
