Ok no problem! If it doesnt come with a wiring loom my friends has just had a front end smash and knackered one of his light so the loom will be useless too him so you could probz have that if required. He owes me big time as it is so might be nicking a few bits off it ;) haha

Oh and some cheap upgraded leds for who ever wants some? :D

Just skimmed the thread. So sorry if i'm repeating someone. I've got angel eyes, You dont need to cut into any wires. The halos are already wired into your side lights via the plug on the back. You do how ever need to connect the extra wires to the battery as they need more juice to run all the bulbs in the the halo.

I still need to upgrade to LEDs but i want to get a seperate unit to take apart and put in CCFL halos.  :cool:

Also running standard bulbs in projectors are terrible! A bit better with uprated bulbs not still fairly wank. Get yourself some HIDS.

yer Hoggys given me a brake down of whats needed, but thanks any how matei

Think ill be LEDing but not HIDing it as i wouldn't want to risk failing the MOT [i know its a low chance of it being picked up on] because i dont have auto leveling and headlight washers. plus i would mess the install up knowing me lol

Just expect noticably worse light out put compared to your relectors. I was shocked by mine when i first put normal bulbs in without Hids!

Main reason i dont like HIDs is when people run them in standerd light's and the MOT

Hids would look better and be more effective it just depends whether you want to run the risk.

I've got uprated bulbs in mine and i dont think they're too bad at all.
