Styling mk2 angel eyes instructions and how to de tango

[custard]

and when you say a decent drememl you really want a drememl.just no subsitiute for the power of a dremel.
not one of those puny rotary tools.
as said take care and wear eye protection

argos were doing one of the rotary ones. black and decker one down from £65 to £20.

Did the job for me, but the reason I say get a decent tool is because my argos one blew up while I was cutting the lights

My dremel was fine when doing my lights. Lasted me from when i started these lights till last week. It blew sanding wood for my viv. I got it on a bargain when i worked for B&Q.

i think ill leave the headlights for now, id rather tint my windows and my rear lights first... and maybe get a nice spoiler

lol, took the lights off away from the car. If you don't wanna mess about with your lights, then you could get the angel eye projectors now available. cost about £150-180

[sid23456]

Have angel eyes already, easier to fit. I think that as they are 'projector' lights, they also greatly improve visibility. Correct me if I'm wrong

Can you not just replace your standard headlights with angel eyes? without having to do all that work?

take old 1s out put new 1s in?

these for example:

yes, this thread was before the ready made ones was out, this way only costs you about 16 quid though

have brought a proper pair of angel eyes for my mk2, but i am having serious problems removing the originals them from the body work, any one got any ideas?

Hello mate and WELCOME TO THE FORUM!

If you mean the headlight itself, then----

There are 3 10mm bolts holding the headlight on. Undo them....(2 at the top of the headlight and 1 on the side)
You will need to remove the bumper, or move it forwards slightly to get the headlight out. I normally do this by removing the 2 bolts either end of the bumper (under the wing) and then the two bolts in the middle of the bumper (at the top that you see when you open the bonnet). This will allow you to move the bumper forwards enough to remove the headlight. Then unplug the electrical plugs at the back, and your done.

Hope that helps,
Alan

[im2welsh4u]

Anyone know where i can get angeleyes for a mk2b?

So in order to de tango, all you need to do is use a dremel to cut the head light, then simply slide the orange part out, and silicone the plastic cover back?
