Hi i was just wondering if there is a cheap way of converting a 98 camry so that it could have angle eyes. any help would be very helpful. also can anyone give me any recomendations on what i should do for the apperence of the car? so far i have blacked out the tail lights and installed clear corners i'm gonna get a tint some rims and i was thinking of a body kit.
thank you

just make sure all that you do you dont make your car look "rice". nobody wants to see another camry go down the drain. but.. as for angel eyes. your probably going to have to make them your self.. theres a few websites where they show you step by step how to make it.. all u gotta do is just find the measurments of the diameter of your car and replace it with the ones on the site. that is cheap but takes alot of time, effort and patience.. another way out is EL Cable Angel eyes.. i think those are okay.. i have made some samples on a Gen 5.5 head light and they look fine but the light output isnt as bright as Angel/Devil eyes.

has any one made them already? how much time did u spend on it?also are they planing on making them for the gen 4 so that i could just buy it?

Please, please don't do the LED powered angle eyes... If you were using huge LED's like 1-3w Luxeon Silver Stars it's be fine, but typical LED's are just too dim, and make the entire thing rather ghetto cheap'ish.

If you're going to do it, use real headlight bulbs that give some real light output. If any of yall have actually been around real BMW's, you'll notice they're bright enough to park by at night, and obviously seen in the daytime.

has anyones done it?what supplies do i need and what are the instruction?

youngstylez · 05-01-2005, 02:00 AM

the basic supplies you need is a clear blind rod.. a dremel tool would be very very helpful.. gloves and 2 sets of pliers.. an oven.. and jar or something round that is the same size as your reflector on your head lights. its not really hard to make.. follow the simple instructions listed in the link posted above by camry4ever.

you can also get this on ebay for about $90 + Shipping

if you purchase angel eyes off ebay.. the fitment is not garunteed to be right.. alot of the angel eyes made that are sold on ebay are usualy for the fitment of BMWs with the flat top. another is the CCFL which is also a flat top. for best results and more professional look.. i would DIY make angel eyes so they fit exact.

whats so diiferent with the headlights of the gen 4 and gen 4.5 i heard someone say the took the lens of one and glued it onto another. i mean what i'm tryin to say is could they be swapped?

SnakeyeS · 05-01-2005, 07:53 PM

^ the gen 4.5 will not fit on a 4. They are too big. They will only fit if you cut your bumper but I have still yet to see someone who has done a good job with it.

do you think it's possible to take the angel eys and bulbs out of the 4.5 lenses and fit them (replace) the gen4 lenses?
