Is the pin issue relevant in terms of the corner delete? There are a lot of ppl who don't bother w/the corner delete b/c of all the wiring alterations required. I know I'd pay a premium to just have an easier way of doing it. If you're willing to do a one-off, let me know..getting sick of the orange!

Alright well I rigged something up just now as a DIY type thing. But it ended up throwing a code despite my earlier tests. I had to strip a little section of a few wires.

The code could probably be solved by either wiring the original angel eye wire to a resistor constantly or using a DTDP relay so it's only using the resistor during headlight use.

That's getting way to complicated though. I'm going to keep at it and try and get the exact dimensions of the pin today though and see if it can at last be found.

K I've come to the conclusion that they are just not bright enough. Even with the full 12v power they are very inconsistent. Maybe it's just the crappy gp 8500 bulbs. Might order a set of Mtech super whites or something and see.

Back looking for the pin, sent over specs for it.

If I do this an additional set of resistors will be required so were starting to get into a lot of money. And like I said I did not think the increase in brightness was as good as I had hoped. Part of the problem may have been I was looking at them at dusk and from right next to the car (instead of 10 feet in front)

Regardless I had a ton of requests for the corner delete setup which the gains are very obvious and apparent so I am back on track looking for the pins.

If I hunt down the pins I'll start making corner delete parts and redo the angel eye fix and take new pictures. I refuse to do it again without the pins though because it was such a ^$&% to strip some of the wires and get the new wires around them yada yada.

Someone on here had HID angel eyes and it didn't come out great. They were too bright and the light bled so it looked like a giant blob of light + the outer ring still didn't look great IIRC. I think another guy's running HID angels currently though (Sam Da Man)..not sure what his thoughts were.

Alright guys I'm still waiting on pins . I'm sorry this has turned into the biggest cock tease ever.

On a positive note I have found a way to do the corner delete with 0 cutting or splicing of any wires (and for the same reason no need to run a wire a few feet across the engine bay) but it adds an additional $5-$10. The angel eye mod of course was and remains 100% no cutting.


Let me know what you guys think about this and if it's worth the price or not.



When this is done I may only sell them as a set to keep costs down and make things easier on me. Please give me input if you feel strongly about only wanting one or the other.
