I think Angel eyes in the A/C is a very BAD idea.. the headlight housing is setup to provide a nice cutoff line for the headlights when projected onto the road... angel eyes will distort this and destroy the cuttoff beam... this works in in BMW's because the angel eyes don't interrupt the output beam of the light.... please please please... don't do angel eyes!

Its not that I'm against it because of bthe looks... if they can do an angel eye setup and keep the factory beam pattern, then go ahead , do your thing... I just don't want folks jumping on the angel eyes bandwagon without the knowledge that it could (not will) disrupt the light output of their headlights... more power to you guys if you can make it work

youll def have to post some pics when theyre on.....when do you expect them to be done?

just checked out their website and i was very happy to find out they use the projector assy's from cars such as the S2000 and the TSX.....makes me verrrrrry happy....i hope this works.....i would love some S2000 projectors in my car.........

for those of you too lazy to explore, here is where they talk about the projector retro fitting that they do....

I just got an email from Caesar at Lightwerkz and he gave the bad news... He said he wasnt able to get the lights open without some serious work so they wont be offering this service for our vehicle.

That PS looks real good, but I think it would look real goofy when the lights are off, or in person.
