Right, currently have the standard phase 1 frosted headlights in at the moment, and fed up with the looks. Im not so sure what I want to replace them with. The phase 2 crystal are attracting me. At one point I did fancy a set of morettes but im not so sure anymore. Whats really attracting me at the moment are the angel eyes with the halo's. However I want a set that match the colour of the car rather than black or chrome. Do they make such a thing?
Any other ideas appreciated.
Thanks
Lee

Morettes and paint to the colour you want, or phase 2 masked. I think they look good and they are the cheaper option

Getting a pair of headlights the colour you want is extremely unlikely especially since the car has a specific colour code the only way you would get around it is buying off someone that has already painted them in the colour.
You can buy any lights and do yourself it however, easiest way would be morettes and the cover is easy to remove but you can still do it with other headlights such as angels or crystals it just involves heating the glue and prising the lense of the painting the inside of the lights.
Sometimes namjags green 206 will appear in the top bar when the page is refreshed, his were green angel eyes they look quite unique.

frosted headlights is good as:
1) the light itself is cheap!
2) use only 1 H4 per side, so even more cheap!

Yea ultra used to make colour tech angel eye headlamps. They have since stopped making them though. You may be lucky and find some new but I wouldn't hold your breath. Best bet it to get some black ones and split/paint them yourself.
namjag on here had colour techs on his old pug if you wanted to see what they looked like

Can anybody tell me which headlights have the halo's around them? Also if any of them are able to be stripped and painted to match the colour of the car.

Any lights can be split and painted. Crystals are a popular choice for painting. You can colour code them or do them black would look nice on a red car. Failing that morettes would look nice, if you can afford them on your student wedge lol.

Yer, black would suit it quite well. But seems a bit common. So will be going for the colour coding option. Which headlights have the halo's around them?
