Angel Eyes Clarification Needed...
I have an '04 and would like to upgrade my amber AEs to white ones. Now I see it all the time here on the forum that everyone is buying the kits with the rings in it. Now, since I have stock ones, I was just wondering if I can replace the bulbs to white instead of the OEM Amber ones.

I see on ebay some guys are selling just the bulb with a socket. Can that be done on my case? I see some concerns about using different adhesives for sticking the rings and the adhesives going turning yellow in time. Since mine are OEM, I wouldn't have to touch it, yah?

Please advice!

No problem.

If you search "angelibright" on the forum, you will find some threads by members who upgraded to the angelibrights, too.
