Props for a good job. But doing them on the evo housing isnt a good idea caused its a sealed system that gets so hot it will melt nearly any type of light source you put in there. I know from experience.

You can do EVO's no problem. And you use the NORMAL driving lights just like you would normally. I do not touch them unless you want a brighter HID or regular bulb. I only install leds that can handle high heat ranges and will prob outlast the amount of time you yourself have the car.

High heat range Leds? Never seen such a thing. Looks like your using 4 post pirannha's.

well your problem may be that your installing the LEDS inside the HID housing area right near the Bulb. Hence them melting from the heat of the Bulb.

Every Headlight housing is a sealed system so condensation does not enter in and ruin the bulb and or the ballest. Even the Z's housing gets extremely hot but where i place the leds has no bad effect on them from the heat.

He doesn't mess with the standard HID, this is an auxillary bulb.

Interesting mod, however I think I'd stick to the Goddess Eye name. Angel/Demon eye refers to the blue/red halo ring around the projector that BMW's started with.

You can switch them on and off....i install them with a wireless remote. On the Z i also programmed the garage door opener on the mirror to control the feature on/ off as well. So no wires are run through the firewall to the inside at all, unless you want it that way.


Yeah i stick with Goddess eye. I have a set tha ti might for the hell of it do a HULK eye to.

I have someone whose into anime. And they watch that Naruto Show with this guy who has some weird design in his eye which looks pretty sick. They asked if i was able to etch that design into the glass. Guess thats my next project.

this is so funny to me............ we are the ones that did a set of 06+ lights for his Z then he turns around and does the work....... way to be original.

and yes we have done EVO 8,9,10 lights.

good luck with your business man maybe we should let you know when we come up with new stuff so that you can get another set of lights from us and use that to make all your lights.......

LOL as POSERS!!

it looks like this guy does good work. If you don't like it then don't bash on him. There are people that do things for looks and not performance.
