But are they worth getting etc.?
Do oyu get good sight at night from them? do they actually look good on the car.?

Also the ones i want a the black angel eyes from rimstyle but it says are designed for LHD cars, WHY?

Get the facelift headlights instead, they look sweet. Besides Mike is right, they look good but, you cant see anythin at night

Everyone on here says that angel eyes are shot. I dont get it. The ones i got (projector angel eyes) are extremely good. Worth every penny. They are different to drive with, they have patches of light rather than blocks of light by they arent any different to the ones you see on more executive cars. Not with the right bulbs.

But it does depend on if you get decent ones or some cheapy ebay ones that have been bodged.

Mine are the proper ones and there is definately not as much visibility as standard headlights.

I have to admit the standard bulbs that came with my ligts were very yellow and not too good. They use H1 bulbs which a lot of BMW's use. I decided to buy some BMW bulbs, ultra bright etc, you know the sales bullsh*t they give, but these made a world of difference.

If they use H1 bulbs get some 6500k and they lighten up everythin a bit

you have to wire the red and black wires to your sidelight wires from the car. the bulbs are fine mate but they are projector headlights, they just give off a shitty dim, very narrow beam and when you switch to main beam its even dimmer lol.

if i was you id just buy smoked standard ones or something.

U2U sent mate tellin you how to fit them, they are really really easy to fit but again like Mike said, they are a projector lamp not an exposed bulb like standard lights, thats why it is dim.

Yeah but they are designed with them on the car, obviously the ones for the Corsa are aftermarket ones so wont be as good in terms of how well they shine
