But I was wondering about some random thoughts as I was watching this... (MRWorks feel free to answer as well if you have knowledge of these ideas)

1. How does it look when your INSIDE the car, looking forward? I don't imagine you do, but if you did, I wonder if the LED's would put out enough light to see in front of you?

2. Can you turn on the demon eyes at the same time as the headlights? If yes, how does that look, and if not, is that a matter of wiring, or the led's melting, or something else preventing it?

3. Is there anyway to have the demon eyes wired in along with the high beams hypothetically? Like say if I'm in my Z and I wanna say hey to a Z coming the other direction, could I 'blink' the demon eyes at him, or is it possible to wire them up somehow to be controlled individually through a switch in the cabin? I think what would be cool. lol

nogood was right...the headlight itself would overpower the demon eye. I tried it and just the headlight shows.....no blue tinge or anything.

Hmmm...from inside the car....I'll do a small video tonight from inside the car looking out the window.

Oh, and I made sure to check out the window and over the hood this AM going to work.....no problems at all. Doesn't distract at all.....heck, can't even tell you have the Landing Strips on....until you're behind someone with a shiny pickup truck. Then they look awesome! :tup:

LOL Tony, I meant how they looked on the road, if it was enough to illuminate the road sufficiently without using your actual headlights lol. I knew you wouldn't see them from inside since they point away from you :roflpuke2:

Ohhhh......sorry! I wasn't thinking when I read your question. :icon14: Yes, it illuminates pertty good. Having made the landing strips turn on all the time it works just fine during parking lights only mode. Also, if I turn on the Angel Eyes I can tell the difference.....it adds just a little bit more light on the road during driving, too. So, landing strips & Angel Eyes are good for daytime driving and for driving up until dusk I would say. Then the headlights would need to be turned on.....but you can still keep the Angel Eyes on, too.

Hopefully that was the answers you were looking/hoping for. ;)
