so here's a DIY
I used four of this Roung Cold Cathode Fan neon lights by Sunbeamtech all had diameter of 80mm and you can find it in the computer store
since computer parts and our car uses same 12v there wont be any problems with converting voltages this kit includes a fan(not needed), neon, switch(not needed) wires, and inverter
I used four of this neons

first take your bumper off and so as your headlight
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38623&stc=1
take your headlight apart and you will have this part on your hand

screw off the original LED angel light
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38625&stc=1
drill a small holes into red dots
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38632&stc=1
cut off four edges of plastic cover to make it round
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38627&stc=1
put the neon ring on, get the wiring out to the back and hold the ring with wires
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38628&stc=1

now you are done with the lowbeam light now for the high beam light,
drill two holes on highbeam/daylight which will be used to hold the rings
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38630&stc=1
put the neon rings without the plastic cover
http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/at...id=38631&stc=1
put back the headlights,seal it and connect it to the inverter

do the wiring and you are ready to rock

awesome! I will Sticky this.

I wonder if the rings will melt? or "pop" ?

What are they made out of?

thats looks great! angel eyes almost look like a BMW. your are probally gonna have trouble with the poo-poos though =/

so how do you turn them on and off?

nice D.I.Y :tup:

I wired it to sidelights so it will turn on when I turn the sidelights on and I also have a switch connected so I can turn em on and off while driving
hmm no one tired this so I donno how long it will last.. I will let you know if it breaks :D

I had case fans in my fog light holes for a long time and they lasted LONG... plus they were continually getting doused by rain.

what kinda bulbs did you use for the actual headlight? they look hella blue

Nice... I'd rock those in red. I was thinking about doing that a long time ago but I was way way too lazy to open up my headlights again.

Ricer! haha.

very nice man.

how did you put the light apart? also whats a inverter?

^^ theres some DIY of taking the head light apart in this site if you search
inverter is a thing that changes low voltage(12v) to high voltage(620v) which will light up the neons. it's included in the kit.

the inverter came with the pc fans, prolly regulates voltage.

looks awesome, I'm just gonna wait a few months to make sure your rings last before i break into my headlights! thanks for the diy

damn dat looks hot, cant wait till they have TYC's for 04's!!!

an inverter changes a dc voltage into (somewhat) an ac voltage...i'm not exactly sure how much a neon takes...but all i know is that it uses high voltage and very little current...same way a night light works...the main point is that in order for it to work a change in voltage is needed...hence alternating the voltage...

looks nice

I second that ^^^

Nice I did that with T1 11,000 MCD LEDS and wired another set over the high beams just like you did. The neon is way brighter. The only way we could get it that bright without neon is if we found some way to use fiber optics like BMW's. Looks good!

i wish my halo projectors were that bright... :(

That looks really good.. too bad I don't have projectors..
Nice work

EDIT******** DIY dual angel eyes completed. pics on page 3******


Thats really good! Any updates on though? Im still wondering if the ring around the lowbeam can hold up to the heat.

It's Still Good! Cold or Hot
but it seems sometimes it needs about 1~2 seconds of worming up before it's fully bright. hope it gets throught this winter!

how are they now? :p

looks rice.... i mean nice..... :hgrin:



really though... looks good! :sweet:

HE WAS BEING SNEAKY ;)

Wish I knew korean :shrug:

now those look good!!!

:_bow:

why are those so expensive tho.? looks good, but for like more than $50 only 2 rings?

50$ isnt that much just for 2 rings... I wish i knew someone that could translate the page for me :(

E-mail the consulate in the city! Always helpfull.
