However, and correct me if I am wrong, your eyes seem to be the same size. Therefore they do not encircle the headlight, but instead sit on top of it...

am I correct?
Our NEW ring design allows for better fit and finish, although they do not fill up the entire high beam, trust me when I say they look fine. We did alot of research and development and chose to use the same size rings because they look better to the eye. Ask anyone on this board with our headlights, and they will give you their honest opinion also.

OEM Angel Eyes are far inferior in look, light output, color and visibility.

Dave, I am not attacking you, just making sure that I get the best angel eyes for my X. In looking at your gallery photos I do not want the halo to sit in front of the lens like this...
I want it to look OEM stock with the ring encircling the light...


Are the gallery photos older versions of your product? Do you offer rings that encircle the lens? If not, is there an advantage to the way you are doing it?

I agree. The full circle on the X5 looks better than having both angel eyes the same. There are things that can be done to the factory angel eyes to make them brighter. I want to buy a kit, but I am not going to get the kit that does not cover the full round of the light sockets.

I love my OEM angel eyes. The OEMs look graceful and elegant. I do not think they are inferior by any means.

The angel eye for the high-beams definitely don't look right IMHO. OEM looks so much better, although less bright.
