    yes they are. i just finished my retro about an hour ago. i pulled them apart last night and started painting this morning. finished it all up except aiming and missing a pin connector somehow when i received them from TRS.

    here they are, i have them turned on with the parking lights.

    Looks nice! So the yes is to the angel eyes? I like the whole circle lit up and not a little space in the bottom.

    I got gatling gun shrouds for my very first retro (mini D2S) and the projectors snug up into the shroud so they look as big as any other retro. I wouldn't get mini shrouds though especially in a second gen.

    That's exactly what I meant haha I wasn't talking about the projectors. I run the D2S as well. I was talking about about the mini shrouds just as you said at the end.

    :thumbsup: I was just trying to keep the confusion to a minimum. Going back and reading I think I might have read it wrong

    So do you think the regular Gatling gun will fit on the H1s?

    Yes it will, but it recesses the projector down about 1" inside from the front--not something everyone notices until they go to install.

    Oh, okay. Will it still look fine and not block any light? I also want it to look clean. If the minis look more clean, I will get those. The smallness isn't a big negative to me. I'd rather have large, but I don't want something that doesn't look like it goes with the projector.

    I'd go Orbit instead, personally. Much easier to work with.

    Isn't the second picture in the op the h1s with orbit? And what size halo for the orbit? It says the front is 80mm, but the only options are 90mm and 100mm

    So what size halos fit the orbits since it says 80mm on the site, but the only options are 90mm and 100mm

    I will place my order after I figure out what halo size I need for the front face of the orbit. Idk since it says 80, but the options are 90 and 100

    Looks like the knurled rings didn't help any. I agree that they should have left the shaft with long length, then it'd make aligning easy. I forgot to mark my headlight adjustments before doing it so thats gonna happen tonight.
