    Gatling gun probably. Iris looks good though because I want to see the whole halo

    Oh, okay. Well I will do that. So what do you all recommend? FX-R or mini H1 with regular shroud?

    According to their website, a 90mm halo will fit on the front, Gatling gun not Gatling Gun 2.0

    ^ What bellassaiw10 said. FX-Rs is a little harder since you have to cut a hole in the reflectors. I went with the new D2S and that requires you to shave the back of your reflectors. I'm not sure if H1 requires any modifications.

    Ew, I don't trust myself that much. I prefer something with least amount of modification. Anyone here have the H1s and how easy were they to do?

    Since a lot of people are asking here is what I used and what I cut off. I forgot to do this before painting and putting them back so I washed the bowl with dish soap and a soft sponge.

    Just a small grinding but for the dremel.

    You'll need MotoControl Bixenon H4/9003 wire harness.
    If you want the halo on the front outside, you want 90mm
    If you want the halo on the inside, you want 100mm

    Go to this link

    Select in from the drop down menus in this order:

    - Morimoto mini H1 6.0 LHD
    - Whatever color bulb you want. 4300k is the most light output
    - Any H4/9003 relay harness
    - Sealant if you want it
    - Whichever ballast you want
    - Gatling Gun shrouds
    - For halos, if you want the halo behind the shrouds shining through the vent you need 100m. If you want the halo on the front of the shrouds you need 90mm
