Sonar Headlights Can I have pics of those of you who have installed these headlights? I'd like to know what the LED portion looks like lit up and the halos too. Thanks!
edit: or other similar headlights... no third light in the middle.

The halos aren't very visible in the daylight at all. The Eagle Eyes are much better in that regard, however the Sonars have better light output. To be honest I think the Eagle Eyes projectors look better overall but the Sonars win because of the light output difference (better projector).
Here are some pics of my car, I don't have the LEDs wired up (I thought they looked out of place) but the halos are on in all the pics. Like I said, hard to tell in the daylight. First pic is more recent, taken in March, the rest were from January (if you couldn't tell by the snow on the car and the ground
)
This one is a bit overexposed.

Here is a new option posted in this thread:

They use 9005/9006 bulbs which should mean better output than the H1 & H3 projectors that are floating around.
I'm a bit surprised by this and wonder about the accuracy of the ad. Maybe someone who's interested can contact them and confirm that these really use 9005/9006 bulbs and maybe get an output pic.
The reason I wonder about the accuracy of the ad is because these look exactly like the other projectors which use H1 & H3 bulbs.

Verdad Gallardo VIP1, the high beams are 9005. Low beam is the H3 bulb. I highly doubt those use a 9006 for the low beams unless they changed the projector...
If they are a new version that does, I wonder how the cutoff is on those?

That is what I am thinking as well. I'm very suspicious of this one. The description says 9005 hi, 9006 lo, but from what I've seen those are typically H3 unless they changed the projector.
How do you fit the 9006 bulb in the back of the housing that is made for the H1? It's base is formed to fit in our stock housings or non-projector lenses. Did you use a different based buld that is considered a 9006, if so where did you find it? I can't seem to figure it out but I want to install them so badly!
i just picked up a set of these after i ruined my stock lights trying to clean them up.
i don't have the halos or leds hooked up, but i might wire up the halos to come on individually with low/high beam.
i do have one slight problem - it doesn't seem like i have a way to adjust horizontal alignment now that the lights are in. right about where the lights cut off in the distance (30+ ft im guessing), the right beam crosses into the left. any suggestions?
pictures: here they are on a white camaro. excuse the dirt - car hasn't been cleaned up in a while.
