Default Dual Halos

I'll keep it short.

Before:

After:



Silver Zr1s will be on the ride soon. Sorry the car is filthy.

I only have two negative things about the headlights.
1) The Gap. Been working on it and may have to put some washers in but for now it's liveable.
2) The passenger inner halo is really weak and I don't know what to do about it. Any help? Can't return it by the way.

Its going to look even better with the ZR1's. It looks wierd right now with the black wheels. Post some pics when the new wheels are on.

Here is a link that might help you out with the gap issue with these lights. I myself used washers to push the lights out a little.

That's what I figured. I have not done that. I just used the washers and that worked for me. My lights are adjusted pretty good right now.

Yeah I saw that link before I bought them. I pulled my car up next to my friends GTO against a wall and they are the same height so I figure that's fine. I'm gonna fiddle with it more. any advice about the weak halo? IDK whats up with that but I definitely can't return it since theres a no install policy and i grinded up the support anyways

I don't have my halo's hooked up. But if I recall correctly they are CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lighting) and do not use LED's like the original halo's so I am unsure how to upgrade them. Did you get HID's with the lights or are using halogen bulbs?

Yea they are the CCFL and I was pretty ticked since it's about half as bright as the other three. I may just end up not using them if I cant figure a way to brighten it. I don't have HIDs yet but will in the next month or so.
