The ironic thing about this is that orange always seems to be thought of as a "happy" color but in this case since the halos sort've resemble two orange eyes staring at you in the dark, it just looks straight up EVIL. I love it!

UPDATE: I actually had a cop ask me where I had the work done. He wanted to do it to his son's Z28. It scared me at first, but he said that it is nothing to get pulled over for.

I wish I had the money to buy halos right now, I'd replace the LEDs with some 40,000mcd ones I have used in the interior of my car to make the rings really bright.

All over the place. The map lights are converted using them, there are also 4 going down the t-top bar shining down on the console. When I turn on my dome lights it looks like daylight in my car.

I used 20,000mcd for all my switches / door lights.

And some 10,000 mcd amber LEDs for the turn signals I have in my mirrors.

I am so suprised that no one has attempted to do this. I think this is the only thread I have ever seen with 100% positive results.
