Halos came today, I have one headlight in the oven so i can do a test fit. the rings are smaller than the stock ones, so I have some different options to work with.

And nope, haven't painted them yet

These headlights were a paint in the *** to take apart, they are probably going to be even worse to get back together. Anywho, here are some teaser pics. The halos were too small, but actually fit really nice on the chrome ring around the projector. So i'll be keeping the LED halos in there as well.










Oh, and they are really bright

Actually I think I'm going to mount them on the inside rings, sort of using your idea haystack but some thin wire instead of fishing line. This way the HIDs won't outshine them.

Looks pretty cool man, cant wait to see how they look in person.

headlights are in, i screwed up the wiring somehow. i wanted to leds to go on with the blinkers (somehow they just turn on with the car) and i wanted the white halos to go on with the parking lights (they don't turn on at all)

But the red halos came out pretty sweet

HAYSTACK

Looks good, but I guess you can only "parkin lot pimp" those. What do you plan to do with your lighting? You going HID or standard halogen? I can tell you one thing, my HIDS were a tight fit and there is no way I could have installed the bulbs with the lights on the car.

I have the HID 6000k, they are in just didn't take a pic of them. The red halos actually still show up pretty bright with the HIDs on too. I just need to figure out the wiring for my other crap

HAYSTACK

Did u piggy back the white halos to the 194 bulb in the parking lights? and the LEDs to the 3157 bulb ?

hlaalu

iTrader: (3)

yeah the white halos to the small parking bulb, and the LEDs to the bigger one. Do you know what I did wrong? lol

hlaalu

And here is a pic of the HIDs





They are very white, I guess my phone likes to make everything look like the matrix

HAYSTACK

I have no idea what you did wrong...Ur parking lights are working so it cant be a fuse. Maybe check your connections, what did you use to piggy back with?

hlaalu

For the blinker one, I used the brown/black wires, and left the third one out. For the parking light I think there were only brown/black wires.

Brown being power, black being ground

HAYSTACK

on the Halo's did u check and make sure the LEDs in them worked?, on the blinkers (leds) try using the wire you left out + the ground.

hlaalu

iTrader: (3)

Yeah everything was working 100% I tested throughout the install. Hopefully I get them all set up tomorrow

hlaalu

For the LEDs I'll try connecting them to the other wire.

The halos I'll probably just retrace my steps.

HAYSTACK

ehh, either way driving at night with some nice projectors will make it worth it.

hlaalu

iTrader: (3)

yeah and i'm happy with how the red ones came out, hopefully i can get some cool pictures of them tomorrow, they make my car look evil

Got the wiring all settled. One of my fog light switches came in today. I have that fog light switched getting power from my radio, and then giving power to my red halos. All the lights/illumination on the actual switch are all hooked up. My red halos now go on/off at my will, but also turn off when my car is turned off.

The side LEDs are connected to my blinkers, and are actually pretty darn cool.

The white halos are connected to the fog lights (for now until my other switch comes in)

Other than that, just need to button everything back up and snap some photos/videos.

Oh one of my HIDs has a very faint flicker, so I guess I need to go over all my connections for that.

If your HID is flickering, you need a wiring harness. They're 25 bucks at hidspeed.com. These cars need them. Trust me.

Depends. Mine work perfectly without a harness, I've had them about 2 years
