Recieved my CCFL Angel Eyes, how do I fit them?

[Rkive]

Just recieved them but haven't really got a clue what to do with them, is there a guide anywhere that is step by step?

Or could someone guide me through it themselves?

Heres a picture of what came,

[arcdef]

where u get these from mate?

[Rkive]

from www.turborevs.org.uk but through ebay "dgroupltd", £39.

[arcdef]

thats website dont work, what did you search on ebay?

[Rkive]

I made a mistake and have changed the web address, the username of the dude is dgroupltd.

the website says nothing about a kit for the E30???? id asume you need to take the lense apart and wire it up to the side lights as thats when you want them to come on?? what are the inverters for though?

[Rkive]

Ha nice one

[arcdef]

let me know how it goes as im interested in getting some of these

[Rkive]

Will do, won't be for a few days as Im waiting for some blue vision bulbs to come down, then il do the lot at once. Should look lush when done.

So it looks like youve got to hot air blow the glass fronts to melt the glue ? to install these rings inside?

[arcdef]

i think thats how it goes

good luck fitting them
these are designed for e36/e46 lights and I think they are a little larger than e30 lights
I had a stab at fitting CCFL ones to e30 lights but the bulb ended up smashing

not saying you are going to have the same trouble
all I am saying is bevery carefull with them

[Rkive]

They were listed on ebay as E30, but o well another sale where ive been decieved lol.

being they are bigger what advice would you give when fitting them?

[arcdef]

just give it ago and be carefull, other people have fitted angel eyes to an e30 so dont see why you cant

[tylerma]

my main advice is be very gentle with them
they are a fluro tube (like a kitchen light) in a plastic case

I have seen some people take the tube out of the case and fit them like that
but like I said gentle gentle gentle

look in the articles section, i did an article on smoking E30 lights, it explains the proceedure for removing the lens and you can see how i fitted my angel eyes. i wired them both to one side light (as my system uses a DC/AC convertor as the eyes are neon), that way the parking lights still work, i removed my sdielight bulbs completely, but we dont care so much about MOT's and things like that here!!
