#1: angel eyes Author: jwhite66, Location: SouthamptonPosted: Sun May 29, 2011 1:42 pm ---- So I have a 2004, 1.4, 206 SE. I have changed the rear lights and now I want to do the front. I want the angel eyes. However, firstly, do they only fit specific models, or is it any 206 1998-2006 as things usually are? Secondly, are they xenon lights? Because I put xenon bulbs in my standard head lights atm but I think I need some sort of converter kit? If the angel eyes are xenon, do I need a converter kit as well?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Never mind the year, all AE kits fits for 206s. Here we have ABM as the favourite brand as their model has enough space within to fit the headlight motor (almost all models we've seen doesn't have this feature, but I'm sure in Europe things might be different...).
In second, it's not mandatory to use AE with xenon lights. You can use them normally with H7 socket halogen lamps.
...I don't get this: "If the angel eyes are xenon, do I need a converter kit as well?"
As if you're using xenon lights nowadays you're already using a conversion kit.

I just meant, that I bought some xenon bulbs and they are supposed to be crystal blue and are more of a yellowy white. I asked my friend why and he seemed to think I needed something to "convert" the power to suit xenon bulbs (sorry my knowledge is poor). But yes that makes sense, the light unit would already have this "conversion" thing that I have no idea what it is! Thanks though. Very useful.

#5: Re: angel eyes Author: Bassline_Toad, Location: Chester, UKPosted: Mon May 30, 2011 5:53 am ---- Yeah, As Rob2859 said, An easier way is to get some "Night Breaker" bulbs.
#6: Re: angel eyes Author: Darkness, Location: Banfield, ArgentinaPosted: Mon May 30, 2011 9:23 am ---- The thing with Night Breakers, BlueVision and/or Cool blue hyper is that you'd be paying for a look, that's it. You will not get more light.
In that case, because of the cost (usually this xenon look-alike lamps are expensive) I'd rather stick with halogen.
Yeah, As Rob2859 said, An easier way is to get some "Night Breaker" bulbs.
I have night breaker + bulbs. They look nothing like HID's and have no blue to them. They are not bad though I have them in my main beam.
I have tried loads of xenon look bulbs and they were all crap. Apart from some 100w ones i had in my main beam, they had a really nice blue tint to them and were better than the night breakers. Even my 80w fogs don't look blue just pure white.
