I tapped into the parking lights so I can turn them on or off

So you connected them to the parking lights wire? So would it turn off every time you go out of parking? Not sure how that works xD!!!!! Maybe I should get it done at a shop~~

no not P as in park lol, the parking lights, the one on the switch when you turn on your headlights, but the setting right before the lights are called your "parking lights"

they turn on your sidemarkers, blinkers, and your brake lights so you are more visible

essentailly, all the lights on at night minus the headlight

I personally like to drive with them on because I've been hit so many times by idiots who claim they couldn't see me

it's pretty easy to do yourself, but go to a shop if you're not comfortable. It gets pricey

If I buy some headlights from Carson Toyota how much can I pay you to do this for me lol

Blake · 02-06-2013, 09:59 AM

Do these replace your headlights? Or do you use both at night?

I'm going to get halos/angel eyes, but not sure if I need to buy HID headlights as well?

the first pic is pretty close, best I can do are these for now

phanguy · 02-06-2013, 04:20 PM

thanks man! that helps. i was deciding between regular led ones, ccfl, and the ones i found on your thread. i didn't like the led ones cause you can see them when they're off. the ccfl aren't a complete ring... but this one is neither which is awesome. i wish that it was white, but i think i can live with this. a much better option than the first two.

i wish they were white too, but the yellow phosphorous coating is what makes it such a nice white color

These look great, definately something I'm going to try to do!!!
How did you mount the XB angel eyes onto the headlight case? Glue or tape?
