you have to trim a bit of the radiator sorround to make em fit,you dont have to take tonnes off,about half an inch just so as it sits flush,dremmels are great for this job.my advice is that it is worth it

That's great if true! Let me know if it is please :) . . I'm not keen on the idea of cutting the radiator sorround :?

get it chopped up,you cant see the trimmed part at all when all put back togethor,ony downside is sometimes my halo lights just look like three dots,and not a halo,the projector part of the lamp is sweet though.

i doubt im gonna help but i have the original FK angels on mine, i posted a pic up at the start..

the reason that you need to cut away is due to the projector. The projector housing is pretty long hence the need to have a deeper unit. It would be VERY easy with a dremel to do, i did it with a saw cuz i just wanted them on that night.. i have no patience, isntructions on the holes were bit crap but you get the jist of it...and not that hard... wiring is a piece of p*** from FK.. its just plug the car's harness into the supplied harness...

heres some pics for your eye candy...but there of the original FK angels..

Someone should create a faq "HOW TO" on these. As theres always someone asking questions.
