Hey lightwerkz - how easy is the AEs thing? The custom harness?

Nice work & excellent pics!
Those tail/brake lights are really nice;
the stock lights are maybe the weak spot,
safety-wise, in our E53s, imo.

Love the angel eyes - how hard were they to install - been thinking of doing it but not sure what kit to get

Definitely going to have to get those tail lights!!!

Nice job on everything else!!!

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

The DRL delete and everything else I did kind of tied in together, and it took the majority of the weekend to finish all the wiring up.

All the harness for the angel eyes does is provide power directly off the ignition wiring, no relay or anything. Anytime the car is on, so are those angel eyes, like in the new ones. To do this without any errors, you need to use a resistor to fool the computer thinking that the factory angel eyes work, and then you provide the new power source. Thats already 4 wires going into the cap by the angel eyes, the other two are for the DRL resistors, to fool the computer into thinking they are working just fine as well. I had to deal with 6 wires out of the cap, kind of tight, but I made it work. Wrapped everything with loom, zip tied it all up, and its really clean, im happy with it.


The AngeliBright angel eyes are awesome. Easy to install, I mean literally they basically install themseleves. They cost a good amount, but they are worth it.

Rob- I think the tint is 35%, I bought the car with it. .
