I really dont like the gap between the trim ring and the headlight itself......it looks home made.Pretty from far but far from pretty.But thats just me,each to his/her own as they say :)

You do get angel lights for beetles. I have a set I'm aiming to put on Christn.

Don't know where to get them though. Got mine second hand.
