    Looking good.

    Move the left one up or the right one down so the levels on each side of the step are the same...

    I know, I just mounted them in the truck so I could make sure the cutoffs are level before I put the lenses back on.

    Quick question maybe someone can answer for me. My halo on the passenger side took a dump and i traced it to that little black round resistor that plugs in. Can i just bypass it or do i need a new one? Thanks guys!

    They ship every time they reach a group of 10 orders. Not sure how many are in now. Andrew will give the official count every now and then.

    Check the resistance using a multimeter and hit up the local radio shack. You can get 5 for like .$99

    That will void the warranty on the LED rings.

    Just contact us if it was bought directly from us, there's probably years of warranty coverage left so we can just replace it for you.

    Our email is answers@theretrofitsource.com. Thank you!

    Dang that looks nice and clean! I might buy more shrouds and ditch the halos.... I was thinking about using vht niteshade (translucent tail light paint) on the rings then clearing them so they appear black then light up bright white. I wonder if anyone has done anything similar?

    That VHT will fade on you though... Beware of that. I would recommend having them professionally painted with clear and a drop or two of black in it. It will hold up much better over time and have the same effect if done properly.

    I like things to look nice and clean and the neon yellow just stands out too much for my taste. I love everything else about them though. I think it would look better with armor up front though so I may hold off on changing anything

    Yeah that was my only worry, I've used it tons so I'm aware of the fading. I was just thinking of ways I could get them to blend in better and I'd be perfectly happy! Your suggestion would be a much better option but I like to do everything myself. I do have a spray gun though...
