Question Red Ring Halo Headlamp

Hey all,

What would be needed to get the red ring for our headlamps? Looks a bit intriguing to me. How does it work? Are they daytime running or what?

Probably look weird on w204. W204 don't look aggressive overall so that wouldn't fit

Agreed with snowmuch, might look too aggressive...unless that's what you're aiming to do on your W204.

But if you do want "halos" on the W204, the ebay item below has a replacement headlights for them; looks kinda like a BMW though...

Looks like it's just a painted red accent ring. It's probably not illuminated as red lights are not legal for use on the front of the car. We could nickname this "Red Eye"!

As for the Angel Eyes headlights, they should only belong on BMWs. I have seen too many Hondas with cheap Angel Eyes.

I'm glad I never seen one around my area. If I ever did I would probably point and laugh at them.
