Newbiest Angel Eye Q ever!

Makushr1 · 07-21-2008, 11:20 AM

So, I'm typically more into performance mods than cosmetic mods, but I have been getting into cosmetics a little more recently. I got some aluminum OEM pedals, bought some black line lights, and looking into the OEM spoiler.

I dont really understand what the Angel Eyes are. All the pics I see of people with Angel eyes look like what my car's headlights look like. The only difference I see is that mine look more white than others who have blueish lights. Please explain.

Thanks,

Mike

Yeah, the blue is the only thing I have noticed that are different from what my car looks like now. Here is the front.

It's just changing out your stock angel eye bulbs for LEDs. Usually the LEDs produce angel eyes that are either white-ish or blue-ish, as opposed to the yellow-white you get from the stock bulbs. Some LEDs can produce a thicker and brighter ring, which is appealing to many people.

Awesome, thanks so much, answered my question 100%. What type of bulbs come stock? Not LEDs I'm assuming?

Also, if I were looking more for a bluish color, what bulbs should I look for? I heard the Lux 4.0 are blue.

Make sure to match the power wattage or you get an error code if you use otherwise.

I think halogens? dont quote me on that... not really sure, but yes not LED for sure.

Lux3.0 and Lux4.0 are pretty blue. You can get them in the vendor lighting section.

One option to upgrade the look to a more pure white output are the MyCarr LED Angel Eye Upgrade Kits we carry. These are a direct replacement LED module for your stock OEM halogen unit that upgrades the color to a pure xenon white output. They are a 100% plug and play replacement and a pretty straight forward install once you get the fender liner off.
