i feel your frustration....
i was gonna go back to stock too but i put too much work into the DIY angel eyes.... so i ended up buying fog lights, they are brighter than my projectors and help out A LOT... now i can actually see whats in front of me
$34.99 at kragen "Ultra White Series" comes with an illuminated red switch
they're not bad for the price... jus seal them right when you get them cuz one of mine fogged up but what do you expect... they're cheap... but bright

no... i really wanna get rid of these... i was thinking of retrofitting some HID's in there but it wouldn't make all that much of a difference... so i wanna go back to stock where i can actually see things on the road... plus i wanna throw some HID's in there and make em supa bite... fog lights are cool but i wanna wait on those...
PM me for details...
maybe we can arrange a swap or something! hit me up we'll talk!
wow, I've been hearing nothing but baaad things about these angel eyes. They do look rather cool, but if it's THAT hard to see things on the road with projection lights (these at least), guess I'll pass. I keep seeing them online for $200-$300! I came across a set on ebay for $50 for a pair...a damned good deal, I thought. I almost bid on it, but I'm glad I checked here first. I almost lost fifty bucks and probably wouldn't have been able to sell em anyway.
well I just proved my noobness with my previous post...after further research, angel eyes are those cool circles around the lights themselves, not the projection light brand. So...I'll pack my things, I'm fired.

those are sedan headlights.... boooooo!!! hhehehe... thanks anyways man.. it's cool.. i'll just wait for someone in so cal to hook me up.. i'm not in that much of a hurry anyways..
Now I'm concerned I was just gonna buy some projecters from TYC without the halo and then HID them but you guys are making me change my mind I thought TYC headlights didn't leak? and I figure once its got the HID it should like a bimmer right?
No, they wont be like BMW's projectors, they will glare oncoming traffic too much. If you want HID that looks like a BMW's you will have to get projectors from a BMW or Audi and retrofit it into the TYC housing, not an easy job.
