Just ordered the Umnitza Hella OE Xenon PRE LCI E60 Projectors with Celis Technology. What do you guys know about this Celis technology in the Angel Eyes of these particular lights? I was contemplating replacing the angel eye bulbs to the MTEC 2.1's but these look pretty bright as is.. Here's the link tell me what you guys think

ALSO, I'm not a fan of the yellow LED's in the eyebrows and corners, any of you guys know about the process of replacing them? Is it a DIY or is it more complex than it seems? Any info would be much appreciated. I tried search but the results were a bit vague.

There's a member up north n new York named nigxdoof I believe that does or used to do the eyebrows. From what I understand it's kind of time consuming. But u can hit him up and c what he says. Also check out his gallery.

That's a hefty price to pay to get rid of the amber reflectors. I offer overlays that can solve this problem. They are applied over the fugly amber reflectors and look seamless. See the link in my sig for more details.
