Wired up my blue angel eyes to-day.and because they're probable illegal,i,ve got them switched independantlly.
So if a white e30 is following you and gives you a quick blue flash,its not the cops,but little ole me.

I got both the smiley headlamps and angel eyes from e-bay,the eyes cost me a tenner from a company called auto-cruise.
The angel eyes are advertised for use in e30's,but they come mounted on clear plastic,which has to be carefully chopped off!
So not alot of cost,but many hours labour.
To get the lenses off,i had to heat the main beams to 175F,and the driving lamps to 400F !
The glue/seal is not re-usable,so i used clear silica gel from B&Q, which i know works as i'd initially put the lenses on upside
down,and they were a b*gger to get off.
