Angel Eyes headlights

Hi

I would like to buy a set of Angel Eyes headlights for my Toyota Yaris.
They are made by FK and I found them in Denmark, so I donīt need them shipped that long.
I just wanted to know which experiences you have with the headlights and the quality of them before I buy them.
Also is it easy to put in a new bulb in them? If the H1 doesnīt work anymore or the LEDīs needs replacing? Also have you ever needed to change a LED? Can it be replaced like the stock ones or do I have to take of the headlights and bumper?

Is the light better than the stock headlights, also when you donīt change to HID, as thatīs not legal in Denmark.

I would appreciate your answers, especially about the replacement of bulbs.

Regards Steven.

I haven't seen an aftermarket headlight yet that produces nearly as much light as the stock version. That includes my fancy projector retrofit.

Pictures of the ones you're getting, especially of the back would help people answer your question about both quality and the ability to change a bulb.

that is my trouble right now...
I bought some brighter bulb for the angel halo lights and I had a frustrated situation trying to put my fingers in to change the light bulb...

I guess I have to remove the whole front bumper again and do it ...

My experience was a bad one, got sent the wrong side lights(RH drive instead of LH) one the light output is not good, stock is much better and the halo rings aren't very bright either. I upgraded the bulbs to Osram Silverstars but it didn't get much better. They look cool but thats about it. I'm either considering a HID upgrade or selling them. Maybe taking them apart to build some Morrette style lights, not sure yet.

Hi

Thanks for the answers.

Ok, then I will go for the stock ones.

I would buy these as I thought they would produce more light as I think the lights in the stock ones are bad. Then I don´t want some that are more bad.

Regards Steven.

The only way you're gonna get brighter lights with those projectors is if you get a HID kit. And most of them are hit and miss.
