Hi folks! I am new in here..just got my bmw E46 - 2005 and I am want to have those beautiful rings for my headlights (the so called angel eyes or predators ..)..I've read a bit through the forum here but all posts I found seem old (2009 and so)..

if you have any idea where and how to find those rings in Cape town area? how much would it cost? is it easy to fit in or need to be brought to BMW technicians? please inform on best rings? would like to have quality ones / original...

I will be happy to read your suggestions..

Cool! thanks
Abdel

Vsomai seems to be the forum's official light fanatic.. so he can get them for you, if not him, I'm sure some of the other sponsors can organize.

The lenses are generally wrapped with LaminX

I would like to have these fitted to my 130i as well!

Anybody in CPT that can supply and fit them for me?

E46 guys can contact vsomai who supplies ccfl and LED angel eyes. That would be your first option. Second option is to import like me and moranor did from www.jlevistreetwerks.com

With regards to the 130i antec im not sure if the light assembly can be opened. If not your gonna have to get in touch with vsomai as he is one of the few that knows how to open the silicone shut headlight assemblies. This involves putting the headlight in the oven to soften the silicone and then carefully pry it open. But its very easy to damage the light.

thanks guys for your inputs, apparently the Weisslicht rings are the Rolls Roys of its kind, spent lot of time searching yesterday and spoke to the vendor online, they located in the states (US) check it out here:

Weisslight Angel Eyes rings (import)

I am located in Cape town, I found some guys doing custom rings CCFL and LED with fitment and bunch of other customization..but after i chatted to the guy he said the LED they have are is less brighter than CCFL so they focus mostly on CCFL, he seemed not convinced by the LEDs they sell..but for fitment I think they are good.. every one say its easy to fit them up but after checking this detailed video on Youtube I just found it really tricky to do..not impossible but very tricky..

so for now I ll wait for Vsomai to get a quote for the Weisslight, then if the price is good I would definitely take it and fit it by those guys in cape town..

Rings or bulbs?

Oh ok cool.guess what I've asked BMW here if they know about it or do it, the technician said: you can't do it, and if so you need to change the whole set of headlights! they stupid or what..lol

Did you fit it yourself? also the SVC concept website they seem like they don't sell the Weisslivht rings anymore!!
