Wasn't too bad, I got the demon eyes from led concepts, they screw on the the actual projector instead of relying on glue to hold it in place. It's doesn't sit flush to the projector like I would hope. But it really just screws on to the projector. It took me maybe 30 minutes to install the first demon eye to the projector because I didn't know what I was doing, took less than 5 minutes for the second one.

I'm going to be installing demon eyes in my buddies truck in about a week, I'll take some pictures to give a better idea.

Yeah I did, baked them in the oven at 200 for like 8 minutes. I did mess up one housing when the glue fell on it, but nothing too noticeable.

Since you have projectors, you would have to take the lens off the housing, unscrew the projector from the housing. Then attach the led to the projector, and run the wire through the housing. Then reassemble everything

They are just a small led that I installed inside the projector to illuminate the project. I can change it to any color I want with push of a button on a remote. It has no purpose but to look cool lol.

Main reason I did it is I didn't want to do all the work, then end up taking it apart to put it back in cause I decided I wanted them.
Either way I'm taking them apart again so I guess that doesn't really matter now lol

I would personally go with chrome or black lighting headlights. It's my favorite style lights they make for our trucks
