There has been a nice little box from the US, Lying on my Desk for the past 2 days... time had come for the 3rd Mod for the CSL!

Called the EvoTechnik Noth London Team up... (Andy, Nick, and Ali... Pete came too). Yes ....... it does take 5 of us to install a set of Angel Eyes! LOL.

Nick and I took apart the lights, while Andy decided that he would not pay any attention to the instructions for the wiring, and do it the proper way, the "ICE Cold" Way.

If BMW ever saw these pictures of what we did the CSL, they would probably die.

And the finished result they look SICK!

A big thank you to the Boyz for helping out, and big thank you to Jlevi @ jlevistreetwerks.com for supplying from across the pond!

Afif, they look very different in person. Most defined halo rings ever. Twice as bright as my Gen 1 CCFLs. The backing of the halo ring is actually a piece of opaque plastic in grey.

Looks even better mate!

Does the CSL have different lights then, if you needed to source the CCFLs from the USA?

2 separate remotes for the halos? what for?

One for the remote activation and one totally independent switch using the sidelight switch. That saved us the trouble of tapping into the live wire next to the strut bar :eek: and we could hide the entire relay inside the ECU box.
