    Well it's too late, I know I screwed up. The hole for the wires is supposed to be at 12:00 on the bezel thing. I went 1 or 2 o'clock. I'm so pissed at myself

    Not that big a deal. Only person who will notice is you. I've seen it before but the chrome ring is usually blacked out. When it's all together you may not notice it.

    The projector sits very close to the housings so no, not really. Maybe a little on high beam.

    @motorsport36 , can you help him out with running the halo wires? You are much more experienced. Don't want to give wrong info here.
    Thanks:hattip:

    We will get you squared away. @motorsport36 has much more experience than I do. Hopefully he will chime in. If not will try to get pics of mine for you when I get off work.
