As the nights are now getting darker earlier I'm having to use my lights more and founding out that there not that great in the dark. So I was wondering how other people with angel eyes get on. What bulbs do people usually go for? I'm using osram bulbs at the moment.

Also does anyone use xenon kits in angel eyes? I'm sure I heard somewhere that they cant be used.

I had nightbreakers in the angel eyes without any issues.... Until I got used to newer cars lights anyway, used the same angels again after and they seemed awful! lol

HIDs are more suited for angels as theyre projectors headlights

My angel eyes used to be ****ing god awfull in the dark, as osrams in them to, not sure whats best, but I think those lights in general are pretty bad. Crystals with normal bulbs are 200 times better...

My first 306 had angels, i assume they had hids in them before because the plastic was all blurred like they had melted!
Doesnt even own a 306.

That's what I have heard that HIDs melt the lenses
