HID Xenon Projector Driving Lights
Decided to install HID Projector Xenon lights in my 2011 GS. 2" Projectors have white angel eyes. I will update this thread when they get installed. Some picture of the process are below.

Very nice would be great if you could edit your pix to include what you were doing at the time and any difficulties along the way. Seem apparent but would like to know what you ran into.

Halo's arrived. Just a quick setup of how I am going to layout the amber halo ring around the angel eye.

Looks nice but I would ditch the amber DTR lights for white LED's that change to amber on turns only. They look amber in the pix. JMHO.

There are many waterproof Dual-Intensity LED strips available on Amazon.
You can just stick it around the headlight. Around $40 a pair.
Installation can be done in 30 min.
Or if you want to install inside the housing, you can use Oracle's Concept LED Strips(with optional Dual-intensity)

Changes to amber with turn light.
still allows me to drive the car at night.

The halo rings are secured by picture hanging wire and epoxy. Once the HID is on it will be hard to see either angel or halo rings. I am considering wiring the white angel eye to stay on all the time (DRL) while the amber halo rings come on with the turn signal.
Thanks for all the responses!

I'd be interested to see what the output is with just the fogs. I installed HID fogs and they really light up the road. Are your expectations more about the look or will you get a lot of light also?
