no they wont!!

although there was someone on here who did them to normal headlights and just attached the angel eye around the globe, pretty sure it looked crap though!!

the cheap ones are made of those plastic rods the u use to open the blinds with and the way they work is they are heated and shaped into a circle and then when set LED's a set into ach end and the about every 1mm a small cut is made which disrupts the light and so on making it "glow" i believe the ones in bmw ect are glass

Yes the beema ones are glass, and use a standard parking light bulb in them. They also cost an arm and a leg. The angle eye's on my car were made from perspex rod, heated and shaped into a circle, then with a good ol dremel made the slots in them. Take a look here (http://www.geocities.com/jvxdriver/eagle_eyes.htm) for instructions on how to do them

Strongly Repeat "RETARDED"
What are you thinking? You might as well use the money and get a pair of parabolics.
