Hi,

Im a new BMW owner, and decided to go through with the eugene eyebrow.

I was able to remove the eyebrow, however i also broke the circuit board during the removal. Does anyone know where i can purchase the circuit board for the led eyebrow, or would i have to purchase the whole headlight?

You have to buy the entire headlight. See if any shops have a damaged headlight and buy it for cheap.

You don't need to buy a new head light, you can either go with the LED strips or make your own circuit board. I broke my circuit board doing this mod so I just made my own, bought everything from radio shack.

I forgot. Nigxdoof is using SMD LED. Don't pay attention to my previous post.

I'm planning to start on this mod this weekend and now I'm a bit concern of breaking this "circuit board". Is there a any precaution measure I should take to avoid this.

Thanks guys

Just take your time in cutting it and desoldering it that's all I can say, if you break or mess up the circuit board don't worry I freaked out and when I calmed down I just thought of making my own which I did and works like a charm.

Yeah Nigxdoof got smd I'm working on something which might be 2x to 5x brighter then the smd

Well if it goes right then it would be good but if it goes wrong time to upgrade to the LCi headlight LOLZ.
