    I think I'm interested, but honestly a little overwhelmed with all the options and understanding how plug and play it is depending on the options. I definitely want black out, daytime running (is that switchback?), amber halo. Assuming you can walk we through my options.

    I'm down, too. Although like this guy I am confused AF.

    I love those TRD etched lenses.

    Black truck, want black interior. White halos for DTRL. Also ability to have green demon eyes with blue halos. Or Blue demon/ Green halo, whichever.

    Not sure how the turn signals work, is that in the halo and it switches?

    Anyways I'm interested and ready. I just need someone to hold my hand.:confused:

    I'll try to clarify some stuff for y'all until Logan can pm you but the halos and demon eyes work independently from each other or can be wired to show the same color at the same time or seperately. If you want white halos for dtrl you'll have to keep it on white. Whatever source of power you wore the halos to is when they'll come on. Turn signals work just like they usually do. If you get switchback turns then they'll be one color until you turn on the signal then it'll switch. Depends on how your setup is wired before hand. Think a lot of guys just disable dtrl and only use it for turns. Hope it helps, if not y'all can pm me and I'll try to answer your questions in case Logan's too tied up.

    Got it.

    Forget the colors, just want them for Seahawks/Sounders game days, I'll make due without.

    So if Im getting this right, I'd want:

    Stage 1 (Mini H1)
    Black Shrouds. (Do I need to pick Matte/Flat etc?)
    5500k
    Switchback halos, so white DTRL that which switches to amber when you hit the TS, which I think negates the other option of having White halos.
    I guess my question is if you have the white halos and no switchback, where is the turn signal?
    Paint matched housings and shrouds.

    Also please god what do I have to do the those trd etched lenses :eek:

    the halos are I dependent from the turns so you could have whatever color halo and then switchbacks in the TS of you wanted. That would give you white DTRL but only in that bulb and you could leave the halos turned onto white. Then your turns would Amber as normal and your halos would stay white. Order looks good and yeah you'd have to choose matte or glossy back for color. For ether lenses you'd just have to ask for it and then whatever the charge is cause TRS etched them in house before shipping them to the builder. Edit you can either get RGB halos or switchback halos. I was getting your questions mixed up, if you got SB halos then yes they'd be wired with your turns/dtrl. I'd just get RGB and then you can just swap the colors whenever you want for halos

    ...I'm an idiot. The turn signals are in the same place as always, that inside square.

    I'm with ya now. Thanks.

    Would like the price on the etching when you have a chance, OP.

    So when it says switchback halos, those would come on at the same time as the normal turn signal light? (The inner square)? AM I just blatantly an idiot?:(

    That's correct they would if they were wired to your TS.

    I may be interested in a group buy as well.

    Going to try to swap lenses this weekend on a hackjob from a previous member. Hate that I may have to buy everything again, but going back to stock headlights is not an option lol.

    Can you post yp what a GB might look like if you get enough interest?

    Also, what kind of timeline are you anticipating?

    My count is 9, I am interested but not committed. Currently have a set in the truck, my stock lights and a pair for donor lenses. If I jump on this I would likely want to ship you my stock lights, either to use or as core returns.
