Headlight New Design (project M33 EVL)

i just done this like 20 mins ago. lol

i was looking at the audi headlights in awe so i thought mmm ima make something custom myself... had the red angel eyes laying around..
now all i want is a nice little projector lens on the inside and then maybe a white strip of LED's like the audis.
im planning on keeping the red angel eyes on a sep switch and have the audi strip as my drl's
and in the projector have my 6000k HID kit .... :)

any ideas guys..? or any suggestions??
i was going to spray my car matt black and thats why i had the red angel eyes.. but now im stuck in two minds if i want a gloss white or matt black... hmpf!

^ those look sweet, comes with everything i see

You should be able to buy just the halos at a few different sites in a few different colors as well.

If you have an extra set of halo's you could probly change the color in them, be about like changing dash bulbs i'd think?

i want to keep the red halos there but il run them off a switch not the main lights switch on the stalk. and il run the white halo built in with the projector as side lights and then the hid h4 in the projector as main beam :)
thats why i dont wana buy extra halos as theres already halos in there that are random. this way these halos will be fitted to the projector less messing around time lol

umm u guys r probly gona kik me out of the forum lolll

this is how my headlights are now :D
umm i wana put the red halos in but no spaceee :'( i cut cut away at the inner part of the head light casing but i think il do that later as i have alot of body work to still finish off .. lol

leme knw wht u fink...
i knw a few ppl refer the led strips instead of halos... but in london everyone has the strips just stuck on any and every car... its kinda like killed it :(

That is sick, those headlights make it look mean! Where are you attaching the halos under the hood...? I've been wanting to add some to mine, but not sure of the best place to attach?

the halos are connected to the side light, you know the 3 stripes that use the 501 bulb in the far corner of the headlights. i use that connection and just tap in to those wires.
if you mean by connect as in how i got the halos in, i had to put the cluster (entire headlamp fixture) in the oven for about 5-10min and pryed the fixtrure open by diggin a screw driver thru all along undone the glue.
then i just placed a projector unit (its that chrome looking thing which has a halo already on it and in the midle has a bulb lense which from the back you can inset a bulb) the halo is what i wired up to the side lights which was part of this.
but the red halos in the earlier part of the threat were just individual halos i purchased off ebay called a ccfl kit or something for a golf. i can check it all up if you want me to.
if you need any pics leme know cos i take pics every step of the way.

I don't think I have the courage to tackle this kind of job just yet, LOL. I'll start with little mods and work my way up ;-)

Lovin' it though, can't wait to see more progress!

surprise toy from an egg, Kinder eggs, how I miss those from my childhood

Im a sucker for the red halos.... Im thinking of getting another set of headlights and building my first set i had. Black background with the 2 red halos... Not sude if i should have a red side light or a white one.... Plus may want to keep all the red on a sep switch as im sure having red halos is illegal here...
Has anyone ever built the interior of a headlight before? Im planning to get 2 sets of projectors in there and i want the halos in sep areas as i think it looks cheap with them just sitting there.... So just wondering if anyone has any prior knowledge or experience with that sort of thing.
Found a few clips on ebay were the dude made plastic moulds... Looks like a loooot of work... Again.. :(

Has anyone ever thought of a solution for halos that work like bmw's oringinals... Where its a bulb that plugs in at the top instead of leds glued in to a tube or something so when the bulbs filament is done n dusted u can just change the bulb rather than having to open the cluster and get a new halo in....
I might buy a set of cheap bmw headlights with halos and jus nick the parts LOL... That way i can change bulbs and colours easier in the long run...
