ive got some and had them fitted for about a month or so now and never been bothered by police
Went to a few cruises and police where all over and didnt bother me. The ones i got are white and they are actually e-marked (the headlights) but they are standard headlights modified with angel eyes which are not emarked.

you cant see the angel eyes when lit up at daytime, you can only see them at night or when its starting to get dark. At night they are very bright, you can also still see the halo rings when you have your headlights on as they shine thru and light them up aswell, heres a few pictures of mine.....

Sorry dude was i unclear..
Thats the ones I got.. are they easy to fit or fiddley...
Do you need to oven the light to loosen the glue etc like on the tutorial here???
Taking Apart My Projector Headlight
Next, it was time for me to put them into my HID projector headlight unit. First, I had to open apart my headlight unit. This is done by heating it in a cooking oven for about 10-15 minutes at 275°F or until the glue loosen. It may take a longer or shorter time to soften the glue on different headlamp units. Remove any attachments, like your bulb or wire harness, that may not be able to withstand the heat. Be very careful when separating your projector unit because the glue will stick to anything it can get a hold of. Think of hot melted cheese on a slice of pizza when you pull it apart. Use a butter knife or a flat-head screw driver to pry the headlight apart. Once you've pried it open, you can use your hands to do the rest of the job.
Here's my recommendation: As you pull apart the front cover from the headlight unit, separate/trim the cheesy web-like glue using your hand. Don't worry, the glue is not that hot, but the headlight unit is. Remember, pull a little and then trim a little, and repeat this step. Take your time and do it SLOWLY. You have about 20~30 minutes before the glue harden. Plenty of time. As you trim, the glue will retract, and you can reuse the glue later when re-attaching the headlight back together. I have done this process about 4 times already with the same headlight, and the glue is still good and I have no problem with rain fogging up the headlight.
Cheesy-like glue. Components of my projector headlight
with angel eyes glued to black frame.
My aftermarket projector headlight is divided into 3 components, a reflective housing, an internal black frame, and a clear front cover. I glued my angel rings to the black frame, using clear silicon adhesive or Krazy/Super glue. I applied only a very small amount of glue to the un-scratch/un-cut part of the ring. The inner black frame acts as a barrier and helps protect my angel eyes from the heat coming from the reflective housing.

the kit is from the same people that sell the headlights.
yes, just stick the headlights in oven at a low temp to heat the glue up.
pull the glass of.
glue the angel eyes in
use silicon sealent (clear) to glue the glass back in.
