Does the "halo" share the space with the low beam? Or is it seperate?

its a seperate ring, you have your low beams, high beams, and the halo ring right in the middle. its just a ring with a led light at the bottom that lights up the whole ring.

Ah... in pictures it looks as if the halo blocks some of the low beam and shares its cavity.

They are easy to install, but they dont fit very well. It took me bout 4 hours to get them looking good in the headlight opening.

Here is a pic of 99legnd2eZ's Camaro with the Halo headlights right after he installed them.

They simply replace the existing headlamp housing. Nothing more to it other than wiring up the halo to a switch or tap a parking or fog light.

I still cant find a damn set of black ones on ebay. :

I'm glad I got my black ones a few months ago off ebay. All that's on ebay now appears to be chrome only. I'd send a message to some of the sellers, and ask if black is available.

Install wasn't too bad. I spent most of my time wiring to the parking lights and adjusting the headlights.

One thing to consider... you can't see the halo during the day, and at night the auto headlights turn on and "hide" the halo, so you may need to think about bypassing or disabling the autolamp so you can show them off.
