My demon eyes from AAC finally came in after 4 and a half months. Unfortunately one of the large rings were shattered so I only have one side done

Added some better quality photos on post #34


Completed 6/26: (Cellphone pics, will post some better ones in the dark later on tonight for tomorrow)

I like the concept. Not sure if demon eyes should be purple.

Based on their instuctions they wanted you to wire it into the low beam harness but i just tapped it into the parking lights harness since i wont be using the parking lights anymore. I wanted to be able to turn them on by turning the lever once.

what color did you get btw?

yea i actually tried this and i opened my headlights, man its mad easy all you have to do is take a cardboard box wrap 2 layers of tin foil so none of the cardboard shows and put the light on top, the reason for this is so that you will not have direct contact with the metal grate in your oven trust me i opened em twice already

I want to do this, and I want them in blue. But blue is illegal.... and i don't dig the purple... and White just seems almost pointless.

I think you have mistaken a Mazda for a BMW.
