angel eyes

[Project_TSX]

I just ordered new highbeams and foglight bulbs. I was thinking about doing the angel eyes as well to complete the look. My question is this, what size rings do i need to buy. Thanks in advance !

I think you would have to buy angel eye kits designed for the TSX to ensure the best fitment

OK. Thanks guys thats what i was wanting to know. I think I will pick up a set when my paycheck comes in :)

well, actually the kit in my headlights is from Umnitza, but the kit that is sold on ebay is the same you see in those instructions. They actually sent me that kit free to do evaluation and instructions. And in coparison, this kit is even better than the one from Umnitza. The ballasts are very well sealed (Umnitza's ballasts are in plastic housings that come apart) and the larger ring fits much better than the one from Umnitza (the smaller is the same). The only thing the kit doesn't include is the harness. So you'd have to connect the ballasts to parklights, or you can make a dedicated harness with a relay and a fuse (that's how I did it on our cars: mine, jays98cobra, pizzaman555, chyllintsx)

Hmmmm ... I'm planning on spending the weekend doing this and my new rotors/pads when they come in. So my question is this, is it sloppy to splice it in with the parking lights. Also, can i pick up a harness from O'reilly or would I have to order it off the internet?

Thanks guys!! I'll print it out and give it the once over.

I don't know what you can order "off the internet". You need a custom harness, proper length, fuse, relay, etc. If you don't use a dedicated harnness, that's fine, too. It's not sloppy at all. The only thing is that those AEs are becoming an integrated part of the parklight circuit, so if anything happens and you take it to a dealer, they may complain that this wiring could've caused it, even if it didn't.

Well I guess I don't know what you mean by harness. Sorry if I sound ignorant but I've never really done and electrical work before. I'll prolly just see what my buddy says about it.

[Peregrine]

but I'm assuming you can read, right? Because if you finally read the instructions to which 2 ppl already gave you links in this thread, and which can be very easily found in our DIY Menu, then you would've found answers to all your qustions on the last page of those instructions.
Don't want to sound offensive, but there's a lot of ppl here trying to help you, and you're just waiting for a miracle to hit you over the head :)
I spent a whole day doing those instructions, and if you're too lazy to read that, I'm sorry, I'm not gonna repeat myself everytime somebody asks the same questions. This whole thread is made of questions that you can get answers to from reading those instructions.
I suggest next time you start a thread, first visit our DIY Menu and look thoroughly for what you need. Then post questions to which there are no answers there.

sorry lol. i read to page 10 and figured i would finish the rest during instalation. seeing as how this is my first electrical job (other than running amp wired and a deck) i wanted to make sure i wasn't misunderstanding anything. also, just finished the last page and now i see what your saying. really my only other question besides where to get the kit was where to get a harness, which, like you said, is on the last page. still, thanks for the help!

[Peregrine]

well, that harness is what I used to make. It's shown there as an example. If you get somebody electrically inclined, they could probably do one for you. You just need 1 SPDT or SPST relay, and I think I used 10Amp fuse in that circuit. You can also find out from Umnitza.com, because I think their kits included a harness, but I've never seen it, so I don't know what their "harness" consits of.
