me too. too bad they haven't perfected LED halo rings yet... got tired of putting a new one in every year or so. i might run these a while and rebuild something crazy out of my factory lights on the side for later. I'm thinking carbon fiber hydro dipped buckets, q45 gattling gun projector's, and light up the projectors green. i have always loved the gatling gun projectors. I just ordered the Rennline folding tow hook and receiver for the front. as soon as those show up i can start the install of these lights. the lights, power steering cooler, and tow hook all require the bumper to come off so i want to do it all at once. | |

| Ok.. This might sound like a stupid question... But are you going to run the red on both sides or just one... I know people do different things... So was just curious... | |

| Was debating doing the terminator eye on my car. Did you use a single led? Yours seems brighter than when I seen it on another forum. Also can you just turn on the eye without the halo's? And if so how does it look? I don't want to deal with halos, hopefully a single led won't be a headache. | |

| It's three 4 chip leds with the resistors already on them from oznium. Yes it will be the same on both sides. Yes you can run just the red eye. I have a picture of that too, but I can't post it till I get home from work. | |

| Forgot to mention that I have the factory projectors. Which is what I believe I seen them do the single led in. Cool look for the people who have projectors. And people can use what ever color they want also. Did you drill the holes in the back or closer to the front? | |

well... here is the thing. you are supposed to put the single LED in front of the cutoff and shine it at the cutoff at a 45 degree angle. i was not able to get these lights apart to access the front of the projector housing. so i put three "4 chip" led's in the back half of the projector housing evenly spaced. its the best i could do. so instead of one led, i added more LED's and used LED's that have a wide diffused pattern of light to make it hopefully bounce around the housing. it seems to have worked. the other reason i used 3 LED's is because if one goes out, they will still work fine. i almost used 4 in each but decided to keep the other 2 LED's in the glove box for later. although, i think i can change the LED's without taking the lights out of the car if one goes out with the way i have it set up also. | |
