LED Eyelids the New Halo?
LED Eyelids the New Halo?
Has anyone seen that newer Audi that has a line of white LEDs on the bottom and outside edges of the headlight? It's REALLY cool looking; way better than halos. My arch nemesis next door has them on his Audi and I need to figure out a way to one-up him with my Xfire.
I found a pic on flickr in case you don't know what I'm talking about:

You have to bake open / close your headlamps.. not a easy task.. (yes, put them in your oven)

I'm interested in his mod also. I just did a search on "headlight housing" and didn't come up with the post detailing with how to separate them by baking them in the oven. Anybody familiar with this post and can steer me in the right direction? Thanx.........

This is the thread I recall which had a link to a DIY. Hope this helps.

I don't think I'll be going down that road.

SAAB's version is also very nice. Rather then the halo's, the luminous strip is straight above the headlights at the very top of the lens to look like eyebrows. It has a tapper to it and is very bright and seen in daylight. Its a continuous light like halos, not separate LED's.
