Cool Need a DIY write-up for headlight and angel eye installation

I am thinking about buying DEPO headlights with ccfl angel eyes for my ti. I want to install them myself and save some money too. Does anyone know of any write-ups on her or online that descriptively show how to install headlights and wire angel eyes? I don't have any knowledge of headlights so all the help I could get would be greatly appreciated!

There are plenty of tech articles and info for headlights on the search! But wolferJ pointed you in the right direction.

Depos' are great and are argued to be the best bang for your buck! Besides that install article, you can read about temps and color of the bulb you desire. depo's, dj auto, ZKW's, ccfl vs. led ae's. DDM carries great product at a competitive price point. Some will flame me, but also look at bavtoys.com and umnitza as a comparison to the different brands.

Do you research and the only other thing to decide is how much money you want to spend? I changed my mind about a dozen times before I ordered a pair of upgrades.

Good luck man.
