RE: pics of my diy angel eyes
well i mean when u put em back they deff arent gonna look like they came from the factory the black plastic lip that goes around the actual lense has to be heated up to bend back. if u really want em not to have any warpin in the lip then its gonna take u a good 4 hrs for each lense as it took me 2 for each and i just got it so soft that i could pull it back right away..well not right away bc then it would just so to speak ooz off. so i had to give it a few seconds till it kinda got some shape back to it. then when u get the the lips pulled back u have to take a flat head screw driver and get under the lense to part the glue thats underneath. once thats seperated you can just pull the lense apart like i said. put a few coats of high temp paint let dry apply the eyes and make sure they arent in the way of seeing pressure bc i made that mistake and broke one and had to re open it...damn damn damn...o ya those are my one pieces. also thx for all the compliments guys. didnt really think that many people on this board would like em. i the zine is more into this stuff then here

Nice job! Never seen an Audi with Halo's before. Keep the ballasts and wiring protected from moisture, the Halos are extremely sensitive to any kind of water splashing around in the engine compartment ... they need to be 100% dry or they won't turn on ...
