Can you get a picture of the cutoff?

IE. Park the car about 20ft from your garage door, with the garage door closed, and take a picture of the beam pattern on the door.

Similar to something this:

I'm sure you can but to retain the HALOS (lighting up at least) you would have to do it from inside the headlight (in other words, Whistler mod it to get it apart so you can disconnect the LED's inside the headlight housing)...

That's my plan... Get these headlights, open them up, change the HALO LED's to BLUE, remove the side LED's and smooth the fins. Then paint the whole thing a darker semi-gloss black

Looks great man its about timne I saw these on a car. Ive been considering buying a pair of these and seeing them on your car pretty much seals the deal. The only thing I dont like about these lights is the LEDs in the corner, other than that they look bad as hell. I agree with Demonbird that they make our cars look newer.
