Copied from Eugene's method.

Thanks for the guide buddy. And the volt tester and LED's.

I wish there was better pics, the camera was sucking big time. I needed my SLR.

Here's a preview of Jon's (brabusamg)'s eyebrow..

He drove away like that because he was going to finish the other one at home.


Sorry Ryan, I should have taken pics of the back, i'll try to photoshop and show where to cut. Its a rough job, and i dont ever want to do it again. My hands are hurt and cut up!

Enjoy everyone!

Good Job! How long did it take you? What tools did you use? I am not that handy with soldering and cutting, how hard is it to mount the new LED's on the eyebrow chip. thanks man

thing is, the camera doesn't show the real difference of how the AIB's and the LED's look. the AIB's are more yellowish. Damn camera is deceiving.

I'm thinking of an angel eyemod.. I was looking at the fiberoptics in there and it might be doable. Maybe two LED's instead of one LED for two Rings.


Hmm have to research.

did you reseal that area you cut out for the LED for the eyebrow's? or is it left exposed?

***nvm, edit...saw the other thread..
