This question always confuses me when dealing with standard reflector housing bulbs. Angel eyes are usually installed around a projector lamp, but on a standard bulb/reflector housing it doesn't really work. You'd have to do an full HID retrofit to make it look right, IMHO. And I just don't think that's feasible on the 1125's due to the minimal room behind the headlamp assemblies.

HID, inexpensive and great performance.

ok thanks. they say they are easy to install. but the instructions say you have to get epoxy warm so you can seperate it. they to put the headlight unit in the oven to warm it up so it will come apart. i kinda think that will void my warranty.

I think they're expecting you to have a glass lense if they want it put in an oven...

Besides - I doubt you'd even see the effect as the dipped lights are on all the time on the 1125...
