Replacement Angel Eye Rings

My angel eye rings have yellowed over the years and I just want to replace with stock ones. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

In my honest opinion, I think if you'd go through the trouble of opening the headlights to replace the stock rings then you should replace them with LED rings instead. To answer your question, I just looked on realoem and I don't believe they sell the rings alone, I think if you really wanted to go that route you should maybe look for a broken set of headlights on ebay or at a junk yard and scrap the rings from that.

That suggestion is awful. Depends on your budget. Lux is the best but pricey. Otherwise spend around $100 and they are all about the same.

You're reading his post wrong, he says the angel eye rings have turned yellow. He isn't asking for suggestions to replace the stock amber bulbs to led ones.

I have a couple pairs of stock halos for e92. Let me know if you still need.

But like someone has mentioned, why go through all the trouble of opening up headlights without upgrading to full LED halos?

I agree, if your opening up the headlights you mine as well go custom.
