Nice work GeraintUK and danbmx_69, but for me the last thing I would want to do is make my ZT look like a BMW or Audi by fitting their type of lights.

But keep up the good work!

Great thread, some great work.

Today the new versions of the angel eyes arrived.

WOW, i'm so glad I didn't settle for the original CCFL ones now.
These new COB ones are stunning. I just can't believe how much light they give off for something thats only a couple of milli thick.

Stunning and deffo COB lighting is the future

Got everything now to finish the job off so will start final mountings later this week.

Nice work Geraint, look forward to the final resul!

Like how this is going, are you going to wire them to switches so you can have ither the DRL strip on or the angel eye lights, or both at the same time?
