    These were D2S 3.0. They now have the 5.0s which are way better. It was an Apollo 3.0 with a front 80mm RGB halo. You can add 110mm to the rear as well

    Looks like you can only do these halos in White or amber? Yes?

    I’m halfway through my retrofit; I kept the chrome bowl and used a black Apollo 3.0 shroud.

    I'm using:
    LumaWerx™ H4/9003 Switching Ground Polarity Module
    MotoControl H4
    M-LED 2.0
    TYC headlights

    I have read that if you keep the chrome bowl and don’t paint it black there will be some light that will bounce off the chrome.

    Because of that I painted mine flat black.

    Maybe true, maybe not, but it makes sense

    I just fired them up again to double check, there is a little light leakage, but it's much less than what an HID pushes out. It looks like there is alot of upper wash in the garage, but with the drywall paper/white walls it looks brighter than it really is.

    Did you have to trim those shrouds at all? I just got a new set of lights delivered and I was thinking of going with the Apollo 3.0 in black instead of the mini gatling gun like I used last time.

    Yes, I had to trim them on the bottom side. I took out about 2" x 1" piece of plastic for them to sit flat.

    @LSC15 or anybody else. I have miramoto H1s (they screw in and no cutting is needed). My question is, i cant adjust these right? I have had them open as i was waiting for my truck to get out of the shop so i can adjust. Then i realized there is no room for adjustments. Am i right? Lol

I’m installing a mini H1 8.0 kit right now and one of the washers is quite a bit thicker one one side. The other washer for the other projector is even in thickness.

    If I get halos and demon eyes, do I have to buy 2 RGB controllers?
    What if I want the demon eyes and halos the same color? Can I get away with one controller?

    what if I want them different colors? Do I need two controllers?

    UPDATE: Found the answer
    Look like you can control up to 6 lights, 3 at a time with one controller

    @TRSAndrew

    Thats what I was thinking...man this whole install has been kind of a let down. It was also missing a seal on one of the solenoid wires and one lens has a few small scratches in it. They’re barely noticeable but still...I guess the quality control has gone downhill at TRS or the Black Friday sale just killed them.

    They get killed every year on black Friday.
    But they are excellent on the warranty stuff if u call and exchange the parts, but a r to have to deal with returning parts
