very nice angel eyes. the only bad thing about the orions is that the lens have to come apart for install, correct? are they brighter than john's (motorcepts) HID? simon, when are you going to hook up my angel eyes?

I am assuming you are talking about the headlights. The lens are the projectors. As for brightness, they are not as intense as John's HID AEs, however, they are evenly distributed, and the smaller ring does not have the diffused look at night time. It's more of a personal preference thing. Some prefer one look over the other.

Here's a picture of Orions and HID AE side by side in the day time.

LOL, yea oh well. Doesn't bother me none. Like I mentioned earlier you can't please everyone. I know WE love them and that's what matters. I noticed your stab at the 7 series wheels. Ha! . Now I personally wouldn't cuz I think that looks tacky, but I'm sure a lot of people think it looks good. To each their own tho.

Thanks for the inspiration amigo.
