It's not a very good choice to use for angel eyes....main reason being that they are nowhere close to the brightness of the CCFL rings. You won't be able to see them during the day, and at night the headlights will wash out most of the EL's light output. Only time you might be able to really notice it will be at night with the headlights off.
