Hmmm... since it says 05 and up, my fear would be that it's only desgned for JDM. It looks like they do have an email address for questions.

Those would rock on a Fit

Nah, I doubt it will look good on our Fit's ginormous housing...I did my own angel eyes on my old 96 integra, and they are HOT!! since the Fit isn't rounded headlamps, it won't look good...

hahha, serious. I wonder if the "gaurantee" will be necessary on the product. Generally, I don't trust ebay parts. They seem a bit too generic for me.

u realize those are just a set of rings and you have to open up your own lights and put them inside?

also those arent led. they are CCFL which is cold cathode. its a neon ring and neon is one of the most unreliable things there ever was.

You can make them yourself

Why not make them yourself since you'll have to open the headlight housing anyway ? Here's a link to FREE directions on how to do it.

White LED's make Angel Eyes and red ones make Devils Eyes.

you are going to have to disassemble your headlights to install those. best i can tell you is search the www.s2ki.com/forums boards for the thread on installing the ricks clear diffusers and follow those guidelines. they put the headlights in the oven on low heat for a bit to get the glue to a point that you can pull the lense from the housing.

its not for the faint of heart and you have to be very careful. and btw i take no responsibility if you melt your headlight trying it personally i don't think its a good idea but remember that its your car and what you like is waht you should do to it.

you need to put your headlamps into the oven and melt the glue, but only preheat and shut off and wait like 15 min, i'm not sure what degree tho, i did it before to my old integra's angel eyes, it's not bad..then just hook up the wirings and you're done...

hmm you know that kit is actually cleaner then most of the crap ive seen out there. It looks like REAL cold cathodes and not just led's at the tips. One thing for sure is that they will be very bright....newayz...Can u do me a fav? measure the diameter of the angel eye i wanna see if its the same as the main reflector diameter. If it is, it will look good, if it's not, ur gonna have to make it look good lol. One thing for sure is that you are going to have to bake ur headlight to get it open. If you go to the HID retrofit thread here on fitfrreak and follow his instructions to open the headlight, all you gotta do is mount the cold cathode tubes in the center and make sure it doesnt move w/ vibrations then run the wiring from the inside of hte housing to the outside (usually using the moisture drainage tube) and putting the headlight back together either w/ new silicone or re-using ur old silicone. One thing for sure is that you will have to open the headlight and that is a risk you are going to have to take. If you can't do it, take it somewhere where they do that kinda stuff. I know there are lots of customizing shops in pasadena and its near u in arcadia.
