Anyone have the Angel Eyes/Demon Eyes? Are they Easy to install??
 
Hey I did do some research on here, and i looked through all of the posts so im not just making this up from no where. But i have an 01 f4i and i was wondering if anyone else has the same model, and has bought (not made) and installed Angel or Demon eyes?
If so are how much were they, and where from? and how hard were they to install, coming from just a general knowledge of bikes standpoint?

Any links or help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

didnt know anyone made angel eyes for our bike...

either way making them or not, you have to put your headlights in the oven and crack them apart when the glue is soft

ok i really want to do this and i've checked out alot of video and information on how to install and make them and i have a few questions. i have seen a ccfl halo kit which uses glass tubes. in the description it says they wont melt like plastic ones. does the light fixture generate that much heat? and i hear of the glass ones breaking with vibration(wheelies etc..) which is the best route to go ? and is there any place that will do the install on the light fixture itself?

no where will do it. no one makes them for our bikes. there is something in the how-to section with using a plastic ring and LED's with good results. IMO its not worth the trouble of cracking the case open. I bet any car custom shop would do it for you with a price, but they will be fabbing up parts as well so....better be prepared to throw down some cash.

you worried about the headlight itself melting the ring? or the light for the ring? Use 2 LED's on the ring they produce almost no heat. Im not too worried about angel eyes...my next mod is changing the LED color of the gauge cluster..now thats a good project:D

in my experience the heat from the bulbs will harden the plastic up and make it more brittle. as long as you make them perfectly round when you make them, then heat them up again after theyre already round and let them cool off again, they will hold their shape better and you wont have a problem. make them yourself. cheap and easy.
