Simon, your pics look great! You got any side shots of the eyebrow LED's and OV2's profile? Just curious, cause it looks like the OV2's flood out the eyebrows. I think it's just the camera, but can you still see the eyebrows well in person after installing the OV2's?

The OV2 actually flood the HID headlights at night.

Kinda sounds like you have a reason to go back and redo it though - just talk to nigxdoof and see what he used - he reported no condensation.

Actually, not sure where you can pick that up, but with a little research, I'm sure its available.

I got the adhesive that BMW uses for spoilers etc (Beta link) when I was installing the Alpina front right from my local dealer, but I don't think the same adhesive would work for the headlight. I'd just search.
