Angel lights?

I really like these. They look great IMO. My only question is that how will I turn it on, like is there another switch installed in my car for this, or is there a seperate key, or do they turn on w/lights. (In many pics, Ive seen them on w/out lights turned on)

It's really a matter of preference. My angel eyes turn on when my car is on, but you can install a "kill" switch, that way, you can turn the angel eyes on and off as you please.

If you buy our kit, they will fade on when you unlock the car with the factory remote, stay on whenever the car is on (irregardless if the headlights are on or not) and fade off when you lock the car with your factory remote.

Like Dblock2151 said, we do offer instructions on our site to install a kill switch so that you may turn them off whenever you'd like.

Our plug and play wiring harness provides all the necessary wiring for this installation and comes with access to our full 45 step installation guide to help you get it up and running!

They'll most likely out last your car! They last for 50,000 hours = 2083 days = 5.7 years of continuous use!

Or you can get the power from the rear parking light wire and they will turn on with the parking lights like the BMWs that come with angel eyes....
