Default Best place to buy SMD Angel Eyes for headlights

Hey guys,

Been thinking about this one for a long time.
Thought it would be a nice change from your usual Halo/Angel eyes.

Are there any reputable vendors that I could buy these from?
And anyone know the size needed to fit the 06+ headlights?

Thanks

90 mm is a hair larger than the projector lens itself for the iron man halos.. not sure on the outside. I believe my AAc external halo was like 75mm or so. I have a set of ehadlights apart and will measuer the nose piece for you ina bit if youd like..

IMHO, SMD halos work better on cars w larger rings, like a Chrysler 300.
They are also very visible and need to be carefully painted as they are a white colored circuit board.. Diode Dynamics sells them.

I also know that LEDs may be brighter in the day, but tend to burn out one by one.. Im scared to trust them.
CCFL is still the way to go if you ask me.

Yeah if you could let me know about the size that would be great.
I saw your DIY on headlights, great source of information.
I think I will try them out and if they burn out, I guess I will just take them out.

Edit: Diode Dynamics has a 1 year warranty on them. So I might be making use of that if they do burn out :x
