How hard is it to do this mod because i would like new headlights and these are by far the coolest i've seen yet way better than the halo headlights that are on the car when i bought it.

To get the "look" its not hard at at all. You just take the lights apart, and bake them open them up, remove halos, leds, and paint the chrome. Performance wise they are horrible, thats why I had to open them back up and modify the cut off shields on the projectors. I was fortunate I had some shields from spare parts off other vehicles. It was a simple swap, but there was no way I was gonna leave the lights like they were...cut off was total ****.
