Demon eyes (headlights)

Im going to have the option to do the demon eyes look on my car when i blackout my housing and install HiD's. Just want to get opinion if you guys think it would look rice. If you dont know what the demons eyes look is i will add some pics to the bottom of this post. Going back to my question, I'm not limited to just red, i can do any color as long as there is a LED for it. I will have a separate switch to turn them on/off and they are only noticeable around sunset.

better check ewith the law in your area

in PA i do not think your allowed to have a blue or red ligths on the front since those are reserved for emergency services (cops, fire, ambulance)

I got a ticket in bensalem because i lost 1 of my front bumper sidemarkers, & swapped in a spare red one (from the rear) that i had, & the cop ticketed me..

I have no idea where you came up if this thought. As I stated there is a switch that controls the led, even then the hid lights would over power the line tiny led in it.

i have seen quite a few (even cops) with different color lights in thier dim/day time bulbs. or pre bulbs (what ever the F they are called) & cops/people with BMw's chnage thier halos to diff colors all the time


these lights the OP is referring to is not the acutal Headlight, its basically just adding a led into the projector to get enough light to illuminate the projector

guess im going to ask the local cops on this because i have no idea where is falls under, though i know you cant have ornamental lighting while driving. I dont see this as a problem since the light output is low and can't be seen in the day.

Just don't drive with them on. And make sure it's not blinking, bec. that will definitely will be impersonating cops/emergency vehicles. With an independent switch, It's only for show. I already did that on mine. And I only turn it on to take pictures.






On the daytime I have dual CCFL halos for my DRL.



And it still functions like a regular headlight with the low beams

Are headlights like these hard to wire up and make functional?

^^^ Cool looking, I heard the XB halos are brighter than CCFL. I am a fan of retrofits and lighting, but only those that are tastefully done. Yea, I was gonna paint my whole shroud red but decided to do the thin red rings to make it subtle.

yeah from what i've heard they are super bright... the other benefit over CCFL is their life expectancy, non-heat factor, and can't be easily broken (makes retrofit process easier i guess). can't wait to get them installed!



^ that looks sick tho, subtle... not over the top... tastefully done.

Thanks, I'm really proud of my work since it's the only one of its kind in the world (in the eclipse 3rd gen community that is)! The Project took like 2 months for me, bec. I was doing it only on spare time. I wish the XB Halos were around during that time, I would've got them instead.

I broke 2 CCFLs during the project . So that also set me back waiting for the new ones. Maybe if my CCFLS fail at some point I'll swap them with XB LEDs.
