Angel eyes?

Do you think these look good?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/86-91...QQcmdZViewItem

I don't know I'm having mixed feelings, the blue looks interesting, and might look good on my white FC......but then again they might look ugly as hell. I think it'll look pretty bad on my car.......but who knows maybe people have tried them and seen that they look good.

What are your opinions?

i dont like them...it would be cool for about 2 nights, then you would get bored with them. never buy lights off ebay...i bought some and they barely lit the road. go with Sylvania Silverstars. best 40 bucks i ever spent. they are very white, and they light the road perfectly.

They look good on Honduhs and **** because they're in a housing... But the square RX-7 lights look stupid with the colored "rings" surrounding them... lol

I think they look better than stock. Even if you don't go for the angel eyes they still have clear housings which look cool.

Please NOTE: As most of the cars/trucks can make this upgrade without any modification, however the Sealed Beam headlights are used from 50s to 90s and some really old models (or certain model and year) sealed beam cars/trucks do need minor modification to make this upgrade possible. The models and years list in the auction's title reflects that those particular cars/trucks use H6054 size of headlight, but not necessarily means this upgrade will fit on directly without modification. Sometimes due to the back of headlight housing needs a little more space for the wires, sockets and lens to go through in order to have the Angel Eye effect. Here I try to give out the more details on the dimensions of the lens. The depth of the lens housing from the front lens to rear metal connector is 4 1/2" and the diameter of the rear metal connector is about 2 3/4"



lol... That sounds sketchy to me....

I guess the concept of how pop-up headlights worked hasn't dawned yet...

agreed
to even see the HALO effect you would have to have your lights up and the runnign lights on and the head lights off so you could even see the halo effect
and if im going to put my Pop Up lights on im just gonna turn the headlights on all the way not jsut so i have some gay halo effect
