They open up the headlights and install different coloerd led's. From what I've heard the hardest part is getting over sticking your new lights in the oven.

I'm working on a how-to for changing LED colors in your Halos if you give me another day or two

Its not the halo that you will change out, its the led bulb in the halo ring. most people buy them off the site sponsor http://www.ledgauges.com/ from what i hear they have great products and service.

Anyone know for sure if the oven will blow the led bulb out?

I will post the writeup soon, it's almost done. As for putting it in the oven, I was worried at first to, but as long as you put it on 200 degrees IT WILL BE FINE, trust me. You just need to take the halogen bulbs out first, thats pretty much it.
