Don't get me wrong. I have know doubt that at what ever price he's chareging it's a rip-off. This information should be free - and I'm thinking if it really is that amazing we'd all know it by now..

Was just wondering if anybody here knew what he's on about.

U need a dremel hand tool and some fibre to make the angel eyes themselves and then lots of fiddling abt iirc.

Just got PMed - CJ recons it's the guide below that's being offered for sale.


[ http://www.crx.lt/content.php?article.13 ]


Just because I'm a little B0ll0x I asked the seller if that was indeed the guide he's offering for sale.

heeeheee..

I had a look at the guide - and I actually think the result is rather neat looking. Looks like a lot of work - but hey... those angel eyes are pretty expensive...

I've hopefully found a set of halo lights that'll fit in the indicator holes on a facelift, but need to see them for myself when I get home next week.

I'm currently looking at angel eyes designed for bikes (specifically the Yamaha R1), I'm trying to get dimensions on them before I look at purchasing.

Heres a link to the lights I was looking at:

They're 78mm wide which means that you could glue them to the outside of the facelift fogs, I'm not sure how well that would work though.

They defo look the part (judging from the listing!)

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 4584886720

but I'd be more inclined to be wanting to pop them inside a light housing (similar to what the guide describes) - can't really visualise what these would look like on the outside of a light housing.
