Hope everyone uses my DIY

I used lwclancers step by step for disassembly and stickied the thread. I used JT's vid as a guideline for HID install, but freelanced a little. Everything works, so now to reassemble fairings.

All done and back together again. Will have to get some better pics. The garage isn't brightly lit and the angel eye is bright as can be. Was hard to get a shot of it. Here's a couple of pics that I have for now.

Was a little more time consuming than I thought, but not hard at all. Can't believe how bright that thing is, Angel eye and Demon eye. Angel eye is blinding by itself up close.

Gotta run back in the garage and yank out the DB Killer so I can just jump on and ride tomorrow. Damn I missed my baby! Thanks to Jesse (JT), Chad (Rabbitman109), and James (lwclancers). Chad put together a great combo on this build, James wrote up a great uninstall guide, and Jesse put together some footage on Youtube for the actual HID install. You all made this so much easier!

That looks amazing! I like how our 2 setups are so vastly different and unique, yet both look great! And, call me Jimmy haha

 

[JT]

Took her out for a night ride tonight, about 20 miles or so. Man what a difference with the HID. The projector leaves a void in front of the bike a few feet, but the Blue Angel Eye is so bright that it lights up that void. I could actually see the blue from the angel eye on signs at a distance. The angel eye is actually blinding by itself up close. Showed my daughter yesterday and nearly blinded her. I will eventually get some good pics.

The light at a distance is perfect, I could see well ahead of me unlike the stock light even on hi beam.

do you have a pic of how you wired the halos to the running light so that they're on all the time when the bike is turned on. Waiting for mine to come back so i might as well do the homework. thanks in advance.
