Found some time to install my LED angel eyes this past weekend.

Wired the ones in the fog pods to the side lights and the main beam ones to the dipped circuit for some double frog eye action:

Dead easy to install (crack the lights open and use a glue gun sparingly to install the LED rings, check polarity of your LEDs across the battery then wire her up.

Yep, this is one mod I personally like, then again as I always say it's like food. Few on here have done this. I've had mine for some time now but I'm going to have to change to new system as present is not working properly.

Among other things on my Coop it's on the to do list.... frown


I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time

Are they the same type as the rear red LED strips or brighter?

You do indeed! Although i didn't "make" these ones, bought as complete units. Lazy smile

Thunderbox, they're brighter than the rear LEDs, mainly because the rear lights are patterned lenses. They compliment very nicely and don't dazzle.

I don't know what sizes you'd need, but these look very similar to the ones I have:

Nah just the camera tricks, mine are exactly like the ones I posted on eBay, i.e. a series of spaced out LEDs.

Ill get some decent pictures at some point with my proper camera.

its very hard to make the dipped rings fit as the hole isn't round thats why everyone does the fog lights instead , i have some plastic inserts somewhere so i'll have alook to see what size ring you maybe able to fit .

So the dipped beam part of the headlight assembly isn't round / circular? confused

Correct. It is more oval.

Fogs and dipped beam would look a little odd anyway surely.

I think this mod looks so good because the high beams are right above the fogs smile

Well I've started refurbing a set of headlights so it'd be rude not to do this at the same time. laugh

Anyone know which size led ring I'll need for the main beam aperture? rolleyes
