AFAIK, there is nothing specific out for the 2010 MZ3. But you can just do what jpn did...

UPDATE: powering the angel eyes directly off the parking lights seems to be problematic... the parking lights are flickering....

I'm thinking the CCFL ballasts are drawing too much power away and causing this. I'm on travel for the next week, but I plan to put in relays when I get back so the ballasts aren't powered by the parking lights, but are still triggered by the parking lights.

Really nice. So is there still a bulb or light coming from the original head light part? along with the angel eyes? or is it just the angel eye circle? I also remember seeing some 2010 MZ3 with a full circle, and a partial circle infront? How is that done?

wow- sitting at the dealership right now waiting for my complimentary oil change...

the guy pulled my car in, and re-filled my washer fluid. he spilled fluid all over the place! as I was walking away from the car, I looked back and am pretty sure the passenger side angel eye is no longer working. pretty sure he spilled fluid all over the fucking ballest and caused it to short out

Damn that sux and since it's not stock I am sure you have no recourse against him for the damage.

I'd be pissed too! I can't believe someone who's career is working on/maintaining cars can't use a fucking funnel! What a douche!!!

they won't use a funnel for windshield washer fluid. if they spill any no one cares...it'll just evaporate.

If they spilled enough to ruin a ballast they need to start using funnels! That's pretty bad aim if you ask me!

You did a fantastic job. I did mine a long time ago aswell unfortunatly i had to use the heat gun. I would like t know what you used to keep the heat in the oven. looks like tine foil? or is it a fire blanket of some sort? Where did you get it from if it is a fire blanket? Would be highly interested to know
thanks
