Default ok angel eyes burned out

ok I have a question to you guys probably a few?

the driver side angel eyes burned out on my monte the ones I nabbed from the you pull that were in really good condition.

I am not surprised that they burned out but it is a pain that I cant find replacements for them.

has any one had that problem with there's?

I am not sure what type they are because I got them from u pull place.

I have seen a lot of vendors that sell the type I have but I don't know if there is a vendor that just sells those to be able to replace them or be able to be replaced?

has any one come across some thing like that with there type?

if so where did you get the angel eye bulb replacement from plus how hard was it to replace them?

I really want them to work again because it looked really good with that on now I am sad that they don't

it is a type of head lights that have halo type of bulb in them that go around the regular headlight. most of the time people call them halo headlights. I am kind of old school when they first came out they were called that

Um...I have an 07 Monte, and I just replaced a headlight assembly, so I've looked closely at the headlights, and I still have no idea what you're talking about. Around the regular headlight bulbs? There's nothing aroind them....

Well it looks like to me, the halo ring does not get replaced, the bulb does. Could be the same concept with your headlights. Try and remove it and there could be a part number on it you can try to match. Looks like you just twist it out and reinstall a new bulb. Look at this eBay listing, while it's not the same bulb your using it should give you a direction to possibly go. See if your bulbs just unscrew from the housing like a normal bulb would if it burned out. Who knows you may get lucky.
