    Never heard of sunbeam headlights. Are you referring to a type or brand? Deloreans came from the factory with Sylvania headlights. Unless Sylvania had a product line called sunbeam.

    Has anyone ever fitted these angel halo headlights listed on eBay? I'm interested in the extent of the installation challenges with respect to the headlight buckets...

    I'm curios about these also, and the associated fitting of them to my car.
    I don't care as much about the Angel Eye effect as much as wanting the xenon Bright White headlight effect. (Like my old Acura had).

    Anybody wanting to/have tried these out?

    Someone on the forum did install them once. I had heard they were cheap plastic and not of good quality.

    Are there any angel eyes for DeLoreans here in the States that are good quality? I'm interested in doing this mod to add "cool" white daytime running lights. I know DMC Europe sells some, but those are "warm" white, and all the way over in Europe.

    For better or Worse, I ordered a set of these...

    I'll let you know what I end up with.

    I have a set of those, and kept the original ones just in case. But they are only the inner ones I changed not all 4
    They are indeed all plastic, and very light. It worried me a bit when I had them in my hands, but once installed they do look very good.
    The angel eyes are very nice.

    I doubt it thye will still look as good in 3 or 4 years. But here is a picture.

    I'm curious to hear if these are an easy install, or if a relay must be used due to higher current draw. Keep us posted!
