In this picture you see a roll of sealent (part number anyone???)



Here it goes on the edges of the housing


And here the cover is back on


Angel eyes in action. Not my cup of tea but whatever








Just so you, know i did not do this retro. I simply found it online and wanted to post it here on CL. All the credits go to the guy who did all the work.

Yes, they are LEDs; not my cup of tea (i.e. the LEDs), but original nonetheless. Great find!

Has anyone switched their headlights for the 600 series lights? Seems interesting but maybe a bit too expensive.

A few have: LS HID to LED Conversions & Price

LEDs are sexy, and it ends there. Functionally, there are equivalent to Halogen lights.

no kidding, but i guess i am even more against this coz' they are so "small", looks a bit too funky. if anything, i probably prefer two big circles

Cool to see it can be done but IMO angel eyes belong to BMW only, like the LED DRL's belong to Audi. Everything else just looks like cheap imintations or trying to hard.

Just like LED headlights are slowly becoming a Lexus hallmark.

Other manufacturers don't seem too anxious to follow their lead...

Makes me think of the Audi logo, needs one more on each side.

It has become a very popular headlight mod.
