Oh you could drill and mount individual LEDs all sorts of ways. You'd need to wire it up properly with appropriate resistors of course.

I'm not a fan of the bunch of little point sources of light look like the photo Blenjar posted though. I wanted a look more like the angel eyes around BMW lights. It just couldn't be done without hacking up the housing and I didn't want to do that.

hold up....so if you were to put angel eyes onto your retrofitted HIDs you'd have to hack away at the shroud or the housing?

If I had put these in, I'd have to modify the interior trim pieces.

yrsdrgn · 04-28-2007, 02:29 PM

o i see. interesting food for thought.

The piece that would need to be trimmed is the opaque plastic piece that rides inside the lens.

yrsdrgn · 04-28-2007, 08:20 PM

o. that shouldn't be that hard to trim (or i don't think it would be) would've been great if you installed them though. maybe you could sell the set you made to someone?

Wait, I thought the set that he did are the retrofitted ones on the car, I think he is just saying he didn't do this led eyebrow because it was gonna look cheeze. Anyway, that's what I am hearing.

you hear correct.... i think.

I think what he was saying was it would take too much cutting to get them to fit. You'd have to cut part of the headlight cover off, a scary thing when the only two headlights you have are the two you're cutting. This is left to the more adventurous type. Who's calling dibs? For +284,000 put eyebrows in a Yaris.
