Does anyone know of a company that offers light upgrades for LCI e90's with the factory halogen lights? Any diy options? Trying to avoid the eBay lights if I can.

From everything I read it seems like a situation of diminishing returns. Where are you wiring your demon eyes to? I did my own. If you have the time it's pretty easy. Save yourself like $1500 |

(My list) -Halos -Black out (body shop) -Clear projector lens (requires grinding the lens diameter, which is super easy if you follow my thread on the subject) -Demon eyes (very much optional) -White corner lamp bulbs (get rid of the yellow for a better color match) -New butyl sealant (tape/rope) -H8 connector (I put the connector on the leads from the halos to keep from hacking the stock wiring) -clear 2 part epoxy and a good 2 sided trim tape (my halos came with some but it was garbage, gorilla glue makes a great, clear trim tape) I'd say not counting removal of the lights from the car, 1-4 hours depending on your skill and how much you are doing (and how many beers). |

Payed $90 for the lights on eBay and did them myself over the weekend. Wiring is a bit tricky but easy
Bad picture they aren't blurry in person |

Here's my most recent custom build. I built the halos completely from scratch attached and soldered led's to it. Eye brows and added an led brow to the mix. I tried to make use of all oem bulbs functions, which I did. I'm running quad projectors, inside projectors are Toyota Corolla led projectors, I wanted the trapezoid lens to go with how the halos were. The outside projector is still oem d1s. I just incorporated the corolla lens on there. Headlights do have dual functioning low beams. And coded out any bulb error code. Which was only the headlight error, since there's an added low beam. Hope you guys enjoy!

What did you end up tying the demon eyes into? I want to find a constant power source and put them on a switch so I can leave them on when parked. |

Dang, I went single color (red) with no controller. I want them on a switch so I can leave them on at meets and such. But it seems like there's no constant power under the hood beside the jump terminal
