Jan, can you take pics in daylight with them on and pics at night with them on and off so we can see a real life example of how they look? I'm interested in these as well. How long have you had them on your car and how many km's have you driven since the install?

I got mine in on Friday. I've been busy working on a clutch problem so, It'll be a few more days before I try any kind of installation.
They came Well packed and with the wiring extras but, No instructions for installation or mods that might be needed as far as relays.
They are as has been mentioned, All plastic except for the lenses which are glass.
The thing that I'm curious abut is, these are All 4 the same housings, with 4 of the same bulbs?
Aren't Low beams and Hi beams different?
I've attached a pic of of bulbs.

In most cases high and low beam bulbs are different. These cheapies use the same single filament H4 bulb for low and high.
Unlike the originals, when you turn on the high beams the outer lamps will be dark.

Normal H4 Bulbs have DUAL filaments for HI/LO assuming there are 3 spades present.
In order to make them work correctly on the Delorean, you have to swap the Ground (black wire) with the wire on the opposite side of the 3 wire Connector. This only needs to be done on the Outer HI/LO position bulbs. The inner (HI only) bulbs need to have the 2 wire connector installed so the wire positions so that they match wire color positions of the HI/LO bulbs. This leaves the center spade terminal (LO) disconnected. There is no wire for it so it doesn't matter. If this minor wire modification is not done you will get wonky power back feeding in the lights. they will be slow to react and cause dim glowing of the inner HI bulbs when switched to LO beam.
Not sure if the bulbs being talked about have the Angel eyes feature. That is a separate circuit to power the HALO effect. Similar to DRL's.

Welmoed's: (maybe same car as above)

And, Dear Mod, please correct the spelling of the title of this thread as a) it will help future searches, and b) it bugs me.

Interesting license plate. Not sure where it's from, but it must be some small principality or something because it's definitely not a standard European plate. Those light definitely look nice though.

Dennis, this isn't a full kit pic but, it covers all the parts included.
Sorry for the Bad pics. I took them with my cell phone on some cardboard I found in the garage...
Back of the housing. It's actually sliver. The two holes are for the Angel Eye bulbs.
Front Glass lens.
The wiring parts. The upper 2 bulbs are for the Angel Eyes. (One pair included with each housing).
Below are 1 of each, (2 of each in the kit), of the adapter harness's to plug into the stock harness.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: I just realized I forgot a pic of the rubber gasket that seals off the big bulb hole in the back of the lens.

George, are those angel eye bulbs incandescents or LED's? I'm curious which one comes in the kit.
I don't think that's Welmoed's car considering the color difference (Welmoed's are warm white), but hoochie mama I'd love a set of those headlights!I'm not sure whose car this is, except that it is in Europe
Not terribly keen on the foglights though -- maybe it's required in their country?
