Do you have a DIY or pictures for reference? I’m intrigued.
I haven't personally worked on a demon eye on jewel projectors but I have done a lot of demon eyes on regular single projectors. There has to be some DIY out there or even picture references.
I have an idea in my head to do it but it's hard to explain without actual pictures.

Before I had these Morimoto headlights, I made my quad projectors on my stock headlights with demon eyes.

Here I attached a link to a sample of how it would look like on the jewel projector.

my stock headlights with the Morimoto 35w HID kit was better. i just got them last week tho and havent messed with the alignment so i think they are a bit low right now. but do they ever look great.
How they doing now? Still prefer the 35W HID kit? I’m debating on getting HID or the jewel headlights

I havent fixed the aim alignment on my morimoto jewel headlights. I love the way these looks over the projectors. Im starting not to care much about the light output since I dont drive out much at night anyways. Plus I live in a busy city area so light output isnt necessary for me.

Gotcha. Yeah I’m in the neck of the woods kinda. I need that strong light output. Was reading around trying to find some guidance. I don’t know much about cars in general tbh

If you can retrofit the true HID projector into the oem headlights, thats the way to go.
But for plug and play and ready to use with looks, morimoto jewe lis the way.

hey I know this is an old post, but I’m about to buy a set of these headlights but the lens are pretty pitted up from road debris and such. I was thinking of doing a lens swap on them but wasn’t sure if the oem lens are the same exact style as these. Like do the screw holes all line up and does the lens seal properly so they don’t get any condensation in them? Any help with this would be appreciated thanks

I use the OEM touring lense as a replacement. It all worked out
