Looks good Frederic. I have the same style, but they're a little too bright and bulky for my taste. Thinking about switching to thinlines since they look a little cleaner during the day and when they're turned off IMO. I've looked closely at the rings and it appears that you could convert them to thinlines by removing the outer plastic ring.

Angel eyes aren't a substitute for normal driving lights. They offer little if any projected light and will not illuminate the road adequately at highway speeds. I've found that when the low or high beams are turned on, the angel eyes get partially drowned out. I run 6000k HID's, so that might be part of the problem since the color is very close to the flourecent hue of the CCFL angel eyes. I think they look best when the headlights are off and just the angel eyes are switched on during the day or when parked.
