Default projector headlights with halos

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

curious if thats a good price, or would making my own be cheaper?
also how would those halos turn on? is there a switch u have to mount or can u wire them into the headlights.
how bright are the halos? are they like the halos on bmw's.
are they meant to be on by themselves, with low or with hi beams?
thanks

They're designed to wire into the front marker lights. Not the turn signals, but the smaller bulbs beside them (so they won't flash). They will come on with the parking lights then. Looks pretty cool in the evening. The halos are light blue in color. They're a little more dim than, say, a BMW (they call them "Angel Eyes") but still noticeable. I put them on my '02 a few weeks ago. Oh, and like they already mentioned, they are not projector lights. They're GM housings that have been split apart and had a different bezel installed to split the huge low beam opening into two parts. They take the same bulbs and everything.
