Just bought them. Might be a couple weeks before I get them - they are backed up with orders.

I saved like $25 to do it myself.

angel eyes are one of the ugliest things on an E36 I've ever seen. Just get them separate and sell them.

if you're thinking in keeping them (angel eyes) I say pay the money, you don't want to break the rings and end up with only 3 rings. HID is super easy to install though

Everyone has their own opinion. I happen to have the opposite opinion.

Now, please an answer?

i speak from experience, I bough the headlights from them first, then got the rest of the package a week later and installed the angel eyes myself and broke 2 rings, the problem with me was that I'm installing them over a shroud, not the glass itself, so it's more difficult, when installing on the glass, it should be easy and safe if you take your time

what do you mean about the shroud and glass

well you need to install the angel eyes over the inner glass of the headlights, and I'm installing them on an E60 shroud I used for my tsx install

if you want to moderate, please apply for the position. if you'd like to run a thread, go make one. if you had proper working eyes, you'd see i told him to get them separate and sell them. any other pointless banter?

Installation of angel eyes is a piece of cake. It should take you 45 minutes or less to install them. I would take the $25 in savings for sure.

1. Work on sentence structure.
2. Don't capitalize the first letter of each word.
3. Do you really need 2 threads?

If you had proper working eyes, I responded with "I like angel eyes and want them installed - just want to know whether I should do it myself, or if I should have it done professionally for me before it gets shipped out.:)

they allow you to knock 25 off the price if you install the stuff yourself, I think its a good idea

Installing angel eyes in an E36 is fairly simple but it will take you more than 45 minutes if you've never done it before. Unlike on an E46 where you can just clip them in and wire it up, on an E36 you will have to cut the clips off of the rings and silicone the rings to the lenses. Don't let this scare you though, just take your time and do it right and the end results will be good.

And they're Predator Chromium, not Promium Predator, lol. :shifty
