Subject: These install on top of the round lenses... Author: mrnobody : 137 posts Posted on: 2008-10-06 11:47:01

..the umnitza kit comes with double-sided tape cut to fit the back of the AE, and wire taps for the two triggers. I can get you a close up pic or two of mine ON and OFF later this week.

I don't LOVE the look off, but if you aren't LOOKING for it, you don't really notice it (that's what I tell myself about the minor curb rash I have on one of my wheels).

Also, for oblique angles, the individual LEDs are a little more apparent, but again, you have to be looking for it. Mostly these things are BRIGHT. Part of why I wired "total control" option was I'm waiting to get pulled over for blinding oncoming traffic at some point -- in which case these will have to be turned OFF after dusk.

Probably won't happen because the light source isn't in a position to be creating a focused beam, but I finished my install around dusk and was pretty amazed by the brightness. Dusk is actually the killer time for these lights to be on. OE rings in my e39 seem lame now. Still, no plans to change the e39. Sealed beam headlight is too much work to mess with. More important mods planned on that car.
