Default Post links of halos that work correctly

I and others here have had bad experiences about very poorly made product that are not nearly acceptable. Rather than digging through lots of posts, please post info here as to which unit you have, HID and Halo, and how well they work.

Thanks

Brandon

All the halo headlights come from the same manufacturer. You won't find any variance from where you purchase them from. Just whether or not the seller is prompt in shipping or has better customer service over another

As a person not well versed in lighting and appearance BS, I have learned something new today. But do feel like if everyone's fit as poorly as mine do, I cant imagine a company staying in business with that quality of work.

And this is the reason why you either use the factory headlight mounts or put a spacer in the outer mounting screw of each headlight.

^^Exactly. I tried mounting mine with the brackets that came with the halos and it looked horrible. I switched to the stock brackets and now they fit just like my oem lights did.

Have had my halos for almost 2 years now. Still on the original pair. Car is a DD. I don't use HIDs, but I have the lights with blue tints to them. Halos still work fine. There's a gap between the headlights and bumper, but I don't mind it really...
