How to brighten angel eyes. DIY angel eyes, installation

Good day to all! I once saw Chayzer with angel eyes from LED strip, and during the day it shone quite brightly, no worse than running lights. Well, I was inspired to install the same ones on my tea! Only the price for installing them is steep; according to advertisements, for the installation of such “angels” they ask for about 2000-3000 rubles, plus you buy a tape from them (for comparison, everything cost me 500 rubles). What you need for self-installation:
1. LED strip - 4 pieces (I took a length of 48 cm each, white light, because blue is prohibited);
2.oven or hair dryer;
3. wires (preferably thinner, but not so thin that they break)
4.screwdrivers, scissors, and a little patience;
Let's get to work.
1. First of all, remove the headlight; it comes off quite easily. For those who have never done this, I’ll explain: unscrew the screw that holds the turn signal on the headlight and pull off the turn signal.
Then unscrew the 3 bolts that hold the headlight. Take out the light bulbs (personally, I just disconnected the chips from the light bulbs) and remove the headlight
2. Prepare for “loading” into the oven (since I don’t have a hair dryer, I had to heat the sealant this way). We take out the light bulbs and wipe the headlight from dust and dirt. Set the oven to approximately 170-175 degrees, timer for 5-7 minutes (over time, decide for yourself, because all ovens require different quantities time for heating), heating mode from below and above and immerse the headlight in the oven! Personally, I didn’t wait for the timer to turn off, I checked with my hand as soon as the headlight became hot enough, but without burning my hand I pulled it out (because I already had a bitter experience with the headlight overheating and the plastic melted!!!). It is better to pull it out with gloves, because... The temperature of the headlight is quite hot.
3.Now we proceed to “opening” the headlight. Here you will need 2 flat screwdrivers. Using one screwdriver we bend the headlight latches that hold the plastic glass, with the other we try to tear the glass off the headlight and do this around the entire perimeter of the headlight. If the glass does not come off, then most likely the sealant is not heated well and you will have to repeat the heating in the oven.
If you succeed, then you will get two halves like this.
Next, remove the black plastic from the headlight on which two chrome rings are located.
Now we remove the rings. Each ring is held on by four latches, you need to be careful here, because... the latches are very fragile and break easily (personally, I broke 2 pieces)
Prepare your LED strip and wire. It is better to choose wire from light metal, it will be less noticeable. Because I have tinted headlights, so I chose copper, it’s still not visible. But this is everyone’s business, you can use copper if you want, it doesn’t matter.
4. Let’s start making the “eyes”. First, we cut the wire into blanks (make it long enough so that you can wrap the tape to the ring). First we wrap the end of the tape from where the wiring goes. Having connected the ring to the ribbon, we pull the wire with our fingers; Hercules does not need to apply any effort here, so that later there will be no problems with installing the ring in place. The excess ends of the wire that stick out can be cut off or carefully bent.
We carry out this procedure around the entire circumference of the ring. Next, see for yourself what shape you want to give to the “eyes”; if you want to see them round, then lay the tape along the entire length of the ring. If you want them to be horseshoe-shaped (in the shape of a crescent) like BMW ones, then you should not lay the tape along the upper edge of the ring. Personally, I did it around the entire circumference of the ring, but... Since my upper part is covered by eyelashes, the “eyes” turned out to be horseshoe-shaped (that is, the upper part is not visible).
Having decided on the shape of the “eyes”, cut off the excess tape.
We cut off the excess, connected the tape to the ring with wire and this is what we got:
We do the same with the second ring.
Two rings are made.
Now we put the rings in place, again on the latches.
5. Now the actual final stage, we begin assembling the headlights. We start the oven again and heat the headlight and plastic glass in it; under no circumstances should you put rings with “angel eyes” in there, because their gel base will melt.
Having heated the headlight, we quickly put the plastic with the “angels” in place in the headlight, pull the “eye” wiring through the hole under the parking light bulb to the outside.
The main thing is to do everything very quickly so that the sealant does not have time to cool. Then we put the plastic glass in place, making sure that all the latches fall into place (snap into place). Now press the glass against the headlight with your hands for 1-2 minutes until the sealant sets. For those who are afraid that the headlight will fog up, you can also add additional sealant, but I didn’t add anything, I left everything as it was and nothing fogged up.
Making a second headlight. Now everything is ready, put everything in place, glue the eyelashes, connect the wires to the side lights and here is the result:
In general, there is nothing complicated here; I spent about 1.5 hours on each headlight. The main thing you need is desire! I wish you all success!!!

Most drivers are skeptical about car tuning. It doesn’t matter whether we are talking about external or internal changes. And partly they can be understood, because in the car’s interior there is enough everything for comfortable movement. By technical specifications They are completely satisfied with the car, and most importantly, the combination of dynamics and fuel consumption is ideal in terms of price-quality ratio. Some are put off by the high cost of tuning elements, some have had bad experiences in the past. Conversations about whether it is worth tuning a car or not will never stop, because ardent supporters of changing the car will never understand their opponents, who insist that all this is just a waste of time, effort and a mockery of the car.

Despite all of the above, few people remain indifferent to such a tuning element as LED angel eyes. After this phrase, the name of the legendary BMW brand immediately comes to mind, which at the beginning of the 21st century, with its ingenious solution, produced unusual, exciting headlight optics in the form of four rings.

Is it worth installing angel eyes?

The owners of the legendary Bavarians have their own point of view on this issue. Many people believe that angel eyes should only be on BMW cars. Indeed, this statement makes sense not only because it was this concern that came up with this know-how, but also because not all cars will benefit from such changes from an aesthetic point of view. It’s not enough to just buy or make angel eyes with your own hands; you also need to take into account whether they will look beautiful, and whether they will be appropriate on another make of car. Quite often you can see in the eyes of passers-by and other drivers not admiration after they see this invention of the BMW company, but a simple smile, and sometimes even a grin. In any tuning, you need to determine for yourself the line that is best not to cross. In this matter, we can draw an analogy with plastic surgery for humans: remove a flaw to improve appearance- this is one thing, but constant experiments on appearance will not lead to anything good. It’s the same with cars; you should know moderation in everything. But, if the owner is absolutely sure that these changes in optics will suit his car perfectly, then, naturally, no one has the right to dissuade him.

How to choose the right option

Today, the car owner can choose the color, diameter, width and brightness of the eyes. Some manufacturers even offer rings with changing colors and even flickering in the form of strobe lights. If you approach classic version, then you need to make four rings - two for each headlight. In this case, it is necessary to take into account the width of the headlight itself, because if the car is small, then, accordingly, the headlights will be quite narrow. You need to understand that if two small rings in the headlights look frivolous, you will have to opt for one ring, but of a larger diameter. Next you need to decide on the color of the glow. The optimal choice would be between yellow and white rings. Also, this type of headlights can be used as daytime running lights, but from the point of view of the rationality of using angel eyes in the form of running lights, the yellow color will be better visible in daylight hours days, which means it will be safer. Anyone can tune their optics. You shouldn’t spend money on buying in a store, but do everything yourself. At the same time, at home, the production costs will be much lower, and the resulting result will be more pleasing, because what you do with your own hands is more appreciated.
What do white, blue, yellow and red angel eyes look like:

In order to do this work at home, you will need the following tools:

Thermoplastic transparent plastic, so-called organic glass. This is a special type of plastic that can change its shape under the influence of temperature. After heating the thermoplastic tube, it can easily be given the desired shape, in this case, in the form of a circle. The best way An industrial hair dryer is considered for heating; if you don’t have one, you can use a household oven in the kitchen.
Can. After the owner has decided on the diameter size for the ring, it is necessary to find a tin can of a similar diameter in order to wrap the heated tubes around it. You won’t be able to make a perfect ring manually; you don’t even have to try.
LEDs 3.5 volts. It is important to note that each ring requires two diodes. These are the elements due to which the eyes will glow after completion of the work.
Pliers. They are used to give the required shape to heated plastic.
Resistors 220 Ohm. An element of an electrical circuit that is designed to supply the required amount of current to operate the LEDs.
9 volt battery
Insulating tape
Electric drill
Needle file. A small file, which is used for particularly delicate work, has various attachments. A needle file is also called a needle file.

First you need to choose optimal temperature heating the plastic tube. If the temperature is insufficient, the tube may break when bent; if it is overheated, it may lose its shape altogether, i.e. melt. Don't be upset if you don't succeed in choosing the right temperature the first time. For such a situation, you need to have several spare plastic elements.
After the ideal temperature is selected, this tube is shaped using pliers. To help, you will need a jar with the required diameter in order to make a ring. Next, you need to let the plastic ring take a solid shape, i.e. do not touch it for five to ten minutes. Then remove the resulting form from the jar.
The next stage is connecting soldering of the resistor and LED. To implement this process you need a soldering iron. It must be remembered that one ring requires two LEDs. They should be soldered one at a time. To check the correct connection, use a 9 Volt battery. If no reaction occurs, then the soldering went wrong. After the first LED is correctly soldered to the resistor, the second LED should be soldered to it, after which both LEDs are fastened together.
Once the connection between the resistor and LEDs works fine, you can move on to the insulation step. To do this, you need to wrap the LED and resistor with electrical tape. Everything needs to be done carefully, not abruptly.

The result is rings that burn evenly in a circle using diodes. But to give the effect of angel eyes you will need to make notches on them.

Notching process

To apply notches, you need a needle file and a drill. Application stages:

The rings are being polished and excess material is being removed. The rings should have a perfect shape, without protruding edges.
Masters advise the initial application of notches not with a drill, but with a knife. After this, you can use a drill and a needle file.
After that, everything is wrapped with electrical tape.

Final stage

Once you already have the required number of rings on your hands, you can begin to place them in the headlight. This is very important process, because you can easily damage the headlight when disassembling it. Therefore, under no circumstances should you relax. After disassembling the headlight, touching the reflector with your hands or chemical solutions is strictly prohibited. This can ruin the part. If you need to clean the reflector, it is recommended to use cotton swabs. Next, a sealant is applied to the glass, to which the angel eyes will be attached. In this case, the notches made in no case look towards the lamp, they are directed outward.

Silicone is used for final sealing. It is used to process the distance between the headlight and the glass. Then do not continue working for 30-45 minutes in order to allow the sealant to dry. After this time, you can safely turn on the headlights and evaluate the result.

Stylish solution

Tuning car optics for people who don’t want to spend a lot of time, effort and money to modify their car and who are wondering “how to install angel eyes” is almost a win-win. In the evening, such optics can show themselves with the best side. The attention of other road users is guaranteed.

Are you concerned about the question of how to do headlight tuning on your car yourself? One of the most popular ways to add individuality to car optics is to make your own angel eyes. On the roads you can often see cars with headlights surrounded by luminous rings. These are the so-called “angel eyes”, a famous invention of BMW designers. Original angel eyes are made from four ring-shaped neon tubes that are placed inside the headlight.

The mechanism also includes an ignition unit. Angel eyes installed in car optics give a bright, beautiful glow. The eyes can be used as DRL daytime running lights or as markers. In addition, they can be installed on any car and in any headlights. They can be different diameters and size and have many different glow colors. Thanks to them, your car will become more stylish and even more noticeable on the road.

Naturally, you can buy ready-made headlights with angel eyes and not bother with self-production and installation. But on the other hand, creating beautiful headlight tuning yourself is also not difficult - it’s simple and quick way decorate your car. Alternatively, such eyes can be made for almost any car, for example cars of the family VAZ or Priora. Believe me, making angel eyes with your own hands is not that difficult!

How to make LED angel eyes with your own hands

Dimensions for headlights can be easily made from transparent plastic sticks. The rings will be secured using conventional sealant. LEDs can be used as elements that will glow. LED angel eyes are easy to make at home. One ring requires two LEDs. In addition, resistors will come into play - 2 KOhm. Shape the plastic stick into a ring.

This can be done easily with the help of some round object.

For example, a jar, its size is selected depending on the size of the ring that will need to be obtained in the end. To give the stick the shape of a ring, it needs to be heated; this can be done in the oven or using a regular hair dryer. After the plastic stick is heated, it must be screwed onto the jar. This should be done very neat. As a result, we will get four rings. If the rings come out uneven, and the ends do not want to be located opposite each other, then you need to heat the ring again and make it completely even.

Next we need LEDs. Let's measure their length and diameter, and drill holes in both ends of the ring tube to their size. The legs of the diodes should be shortened so that their length is no more than 5 mm from the semiconductor body. Next, you should solder the “legs” from the diodes to each other. The minus must be soldered to the minus, the plus to the plus. The leg with the plus sign is located in a wider thickening. The next step is to solder the wires to the legs. It is recommended to take colored ones so that you can easily determine their polarity later.

Further at a distance of 10-15 cm cut off the wire, then you need to solder the ballast resistance to the wire. Solder the wire to the second “leg” of the resistor. Use clear nail polish to secure the diodes. One drop of varnish is enough to drip onto each end. Then we leave the varnish and wait until it dries. The varnish is needed in order to completely fix the diodes; it will fill all the pores, ensuring absolute contact between the plastic stick and the diode. With absolute contact, the light will spread much more evenly.

Some of the most popular car lamps when replacing burnt ones are. Read our article about the possibility of replacing such lamps with LED lamps with a longer service life.

Eyelash effect

Many, making your own angel eyes, want to give them beautiful effect eyelashes To do this, you need to make notches along the entire length of the ring. The notches are made at a distance of 1 centimeter from each other. The depth of the notch should be about 0.5 cm.

Installation of angel eyes

All that remains is to place the angel eyes in the headlight. We disassemble it and remove the glass. Installing angel eyes is a big problem, because you need to disassemble the headlight without damaging it. Final assembly must be carried out with particular care. Using cotton swabs, remove accumulated debris from the surface of the reflector.

In the process of making angel eyes with your own hands, you should not touch the surface of the reflector, you should not use chemical compositions to process it, otherwise the surface of the reflective layer may be damaged. You need to apply sealant to the glass and then install the ring. We install the ring so that the LEDs are located at the top. We lay the wires in the hollow of the headlight.

The notches on the ring should point outward and not toward the lamp. Let's apply silicone between the glass and the headlight. Carefully close all pores. The sealant dries for half an hour. After it dries, you need to turn on the headlights and evaluate the result. Let's connect power to the angel eyes. Place the headlights in place, attach the wires to the headlight wiring harness, and carefully hide them under the hood. We disconnect the plug of wires from the markers and turn signals. We will connect the so-called “Dads” of the dimensions and turn signals to each other and connect them to the “Mother” of the turn signals. The “mother” of the dimensions will be freed, and we will connect the “plus” from the peepholes to it. We will place our “minus” under the mounts for the turn signals.

The moment has come when, when we turn on the dimensions, we will see angel eyes that we made with our own hands. Now you know how to make angel eyes yourself.

Bi-xenon lenses with angel eyes

Experts and car enthusiasts have long known that the advantages of xenon light in the best possible way appear when there are lenses on the car. In addition, the car enthusiast and his car are guaranteed comfortable and safe driving with bi-xenon lenses.

Such lenses will help avoid dazzling oncoming cars and ensure the formation of the correct beam of light.

Bi-xenon lenses with angel eyes look the most impressive, stylish and modern. These lenses are suitable for all types of car lamp sockets. Installation in a regular base is provided and there is no need to cut the reflector. Often, installation requires just removing the outer glass of the headlight and placing the lens there.

Angel Eyes today

Angel eyes are an element of car tuning that never ceases to please car enthusiasts. If body kits, interior tuning, spoilers in various configurations can become boring and “boring” over time, then alternative optics are a pleasant exception. In the early 2000s, the first cars with this tuning element just began to appear on the roads, and very soon angel eyes began to have more and more fans. The reasons are clear. After all, this is not just a beautiful accessory, they are also an excellent means of ensuring traffic safety.

Conventional optics, especially high beams, although visible on the roads from afar, blind oncoming cars, often creating serious discomfort. This alternative optics copes 100% with all the assigned tasks, but does not cause any discomfort to other drivers. There is another advantage of angel eyes - this low electricity consumption. All this and, of course, aesthetic characteristics generate huge demand among consumers for this type tuning.

One of the easiest options for modifying the exterior of a car is tuning the headlights yourself. Today, the so-called “angel eyes” are very popular. It's about about the luminous rings built into the front optics of the car. At first, this solution appeared on BMW cars, but after some time many car enthusiasts liked this idea. Therefore, in this article we will try to cover this topic and help you understand how to make angel eyes and install them yourself.

Features of angel eyes

The production of original angel eyes is carried out using neon tubes, which are bent and installed in the headlights. This mechanism uses a special ignition unit. Installing angel eyes in the headlights results in a pleasant and fairly bright glow.

Some drivers use these elements as daytime running lights, as well as dimensions. It is noteworthy that angel eyes headlights can be used on various cars. Their dimensions and diameter may differ significantly from each other. No less important is the fact that car owners can choose optimal color glow, which will give the car a truly exclusive look.

Of course, simplest option– is to buy angel eyes and install them at one of the car services. However, many car enthusiasts want to install angel eyes with their own hands, since only in this case can they get real pleasure from modifying their own car. And it’s not at all difficult to do this. Angel eyes are often installed on VAZ cars from the “classic” series, as well as on modern models, for example, Lada Priora. Let's move on to the question of how to install angel eyes.

LED Angel Eyes

Colorless plastic sticks are used to make dimensions. To securely fasten the rings you will need sealant. LEDs will provide a beautiful glow. Making LED angel eyes on your own is quite possible, even for those who do not have much experience in car tuning. For each of the rings you need to select a pair of LEDs. In addition, you need to purchase resistors with a resistance of 2 kOhm.

You need to make a ring out of each stick. You can make the task easier by using a jar of the appropriate diameter. We heat a plastic stick using a hair dryer (an easier option is an oven) and screw it onto the selected jar. After making all the rings, you can check them again and align them, if necessary.
As the title of this section suggests, LED angel eyes involve the use of LEDs. It is necessary to determine their diameter and length, and then make corresponding holes in the two ends of each ring. We shorten the legs of the diodes so that their length does not exceed 5 mm from the semiconductor body.
We connect the legs of the diodes to each other using a soldering iron. It is necessary to solder minus to minus, and plus to plus. The plus leg is located in a thickening of larger diameter. Next, solder the LED legs to the wires. We recommend using colored wires, with which you will definitely not mix up the polarity.
The wire must be cut at a distance of about 15 cm, and then a ballast resistor must be soldered to it. The wire must be soldered to the second leg of the selected resistor.
The diodes are attached using clear nail polish. Literally one drop of the product should be applied to each end. After this, you need to wait a little so that the varnish has time to dry. The varnish will ensure reliable fastening of the diodes and ensure good contact between the diode and the stick. Thanks to this, LED angel eyes will look very beautiful.

If you have a desire to install angel eyes with “cilia,” you need to make the appropriate notches, which should be present along the entire length of the sticks. Leave about 10 mm between the notches. The notches should be approximately 5 mm deep.

Angel Eyes Installation Procedure

It's time to install the angel eyes headlights. To do this, you must first disassemble the headlight housing and remove the glass. As a rule, installing angel eyes takes a lot of time, since the headlight must be disassembled very carefully so as not to damage the mounts.

The final assembly is also an important step. The surface of the reflector must be cleaned of dirt and debris, for which it is better to use cotton swabs. To perform this procedure, it is prohibited to use chemicals. In addition, do not touch the surface with your hands.

We apply sealant to the glass and install the ring. Everything needs to be done so that the LED elements are at the top of the headlight. Next we lay the wires.

If there are notches on the ring, they need to be directed outward. It is necessary to apply silicone between the headlight and the glass and carefully fill all the pores. The product will dry in about 30 minutes. After this, it is necessary to test the operation of the headlights by first connecting power to our angel eyes.

To do this, you need to disconnect the plug designed to connect the turn signals and side lights. The connectors of the turn signals and markers of the “Male” type need to be connected to each other, and then connected to the “Mother” of the turn signals. As a result, you will have a free female connector, which was previously used by the side lights. It is to this that the “plus” from the angel eyes needs to be connected. We connect the “minus” to the fastenings of the turning lights.

After all these steps, when turning on the side lights, the angel eyes headlights should also turn on. Now you know how to make angel eyes with your own hands, and also correctly connect them to the power system.

Bi-xenon lenses with angel eyes

It's no secret that the best results can be achieved only if the machine is equipped with lenses. In addition, the use of bi-xenon lenses ensures comfortable driving in the dark.

Thanks to such lenses, you will not dazzle oncoming drivers and at the same time you will be able to drive your car without any difficulties. It is the bi-xenon lenses with angel eyes that look very attractive. This type of lens can be installed on different groups of lamp sockets used in cars. In order to install them in a standard base, you only need to remove the outer glass of the headlight and install the lens.

Benefits of using angel eyes

Installing angel eyes yourself is one of the components of car tuning, the popularity of which is not decreasing. Upgrading the interior and installing various aerodynamic elements over time is often no longer pleasing to the eye, but this option for tuning headlights always attracts attention.

Another “advantage” of using angel eyes is that they provide additional security. This optics performs its main tasks well without creating problems for other car owners. In addition, angel eyes consume minimal amount energy.

Photos and videos of angel eyes

Hello, dear friends! At one time, angel eyes on BMW cars made a splash on the market. It was optics of amazing beauty, especially in the dark. But even now fashion has not disappeared, and many people want to make angel eyes with their own hands.

In practice, there is nothing particularly complicated here. You will have to tinker, but the result will certainly please you. You can start from different instructions and manufacturing options. Some people use sites with videos that can be watched in parallel with taking notes in a notebook. Also on the Drive2 resource, motorists share their own experience of making peepholes, like those on a BMW.

I suggest you consider 3 interesting options. 2 of them are homemade and one more can be purchased online. The kit usually includes an ignition unit or a stabilizer, depending on the light source used.

First option

Often, when motorists want to make homemade angel eyes, LEDs are used. They perfectly complement the main beam headlights, and their installation does not cause much difficulty.

As for the set of materials and tools, here you will need to take:

LEDs white 5 mm each;
a resistor of approximately 330 Ohms and 0.25 W;
wires for connection;
plastic rod;
or a plexiglass rod (diameter from 8 to 10 mm);
jar or lid (1-3 liters);
drill with adjustable speed;
soldering iron;
silicone glue;
construction type hairdryer.

Take the rod suitable length to make a ring out of it. You will need to make holes on the end sides for installing LEDs.

Typically the holes are made with a diameter of about 6 millimeters. The depth depends on the design of the tube itself. But it is better not to exceed the value of 10 millimeters. To make the body take the shape of an optical device, you can take a jar or a lid from it. By bending around the jar, you will get a perfectly even ring. It is important that the diameter matches the internal diameter of the headlight itself on your car. Using a hair dryer, the body heats up and bends around the jar or its lid. There is no need to completely connect the ends of the tube to each other.

At the next stage, diodes are installed. Here you need to solder a wire of a suitable length to the terminals, which is enough to connect to the power wires outside the car headlight housing. A resistor is soldered onto one wire. As a result, you need to assemble an electrical circuit of LEDs with a serial connection and the resistor itself.

Now insert the diodes into the holes of your tube and secure with glue. The number of LEDs is determined individually.

In this case, you should not count on a bright glow and the ability to replace DRLs. The option is rather decorative.

Second method

Here the design is also cool and interesting. It only differs in the use of a light source from an LED strip.

This option is often encountered when trying to install angel eyes:

to Priora;
Toyota Chaser 100;
BMWs deprived of such a privilege;
VAZ 2106;
VAZ 2109;
2110;
VAZ 2115;
VAZ 2114;
Renault Logan;
Hyundai Solaris;
Daewoo Lanos, etc.

Objectively, angel eyes look more advantageous on foreign cars. Although no one will forbid you to install such solutions on any machine.

To implement the task, you will need to prepare a slightly different set of materials and tools.

The following is required:

double-density white LED strip, but without silicone coating;
wires for connection;
transparent silicone;
glue;
varnish (silver color);
screwdriver;
pliers;
Have a good mood;
extreme concentration and accuracy.

LED strips bend perfectly, which will allow you to easily make a ring of the required diameter. Just keep in mind that one headlight requires about 30-40 centimeters of tape.

Then at one end they are stripped contact pads to solder additional wires there. They allow you to connect to a +12V power supply.

Next, a piece of tape is pointed onto a flat surface with the diodes facing upward. Gradually the tape is filled with transparent silicone. Do this slowly and carefully, armed with a mounting gun. This will allow you to coat the diodes with a uniform and even layer of silicone. It is important to wait for the resulting structure to dry completely, otherwise you will ruin everything with your own hands. Silicone will protect the product and act as a light diffuser.

To avoid wasting light illuminating the reflector, coat the back side of the tape with silver varnish. You can borrow it from your wife, sister or mother. Or buy it at your nearest store. The varnish will act as a reflector.

Third method

In theory, it is the simplest, since you are simply buying a ready-made device, which has a diffuser, an ignition unit and other necessary components. It’s just important to choose a quality product, since the Internet offers many options that are not of the best quality.

If we talk about Aliexpress, then I would not advise you to buy ready-made angel eyes based on LEDs. Low-quality products are used here, which can quickly overheat when the head optics are turned on. As a result, in less than a year they will have to be removed due to the significantly reduced brightness level.

A little about connection

In general, installation and connection largely depend on the specific car and its design features. But some are common and very important points worth highlighting.

To begin with, elements such as angel eyes act as an additional lighting device in the composition. vehicle. Therefore, their presence falls under the requirement for DRLs. As you understand, these are daytime running lights.

And according to the rules, they should be turned on simultaneously with starting the engine, and turned off when stopping. Plus, the DRLs are required to turn off when the headlights turn on. This tells us that the connection of the eyes should be carried out according to the connection diagram for daytime lights.

One of the options involves using 4 female terminals and one five-pin relay. The minus from the eyes goes to the body, and the plus goes to the relay.
