Default Halo Headlight Issues/Question

I bought Halo headlights at ebay. Has anybody heard of this company

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-02...30260071QQrdZ1

Im having problems installing them. The connection is not a problem but, they don't sit flush into the bumper.

Any help or information on this would be greatly appreciated........

- use the stock brackets
- put washers behind the bolts to make the headlights flush

Mine dont sit perfectly flush either.

I have the old style single halos. They have been on the car for years.

When i get them to sit perfectly flush, the headlights are so out of whack. One will be pointing too far left and the other one is too far up or down. I guess I have just learned to deal with it.

Did you try the washers? It really does help.

Thanx for the help guys, I tried the washers. It helped a little but when I grinded down the stock bracket that holds the light's in place, they fit a whole lot better. There still not perfect, but it will do for now

I will post up pitures in the morning.....

Here are a few pics i took after the install... it was late & all i could think about was FRIES. So i'll take some better ones later & share. I also threw in a little teaser of my new wheels... i'll make sure to snap a bunch of pics with those & the freshly painted calipers.





the teaser...


Thanks again for the help!
