    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    TRS is where it's at!! The install was simple on my mini's and the output is amazing!! it's like night and day over stock. I highly recommend these.

    Jerry, did you specify any particular size for the halo rings or did you just select halos from the drop down box? And how did you attach them to the outside of the shroud?

    I just got the ones in the drop down i think they were 70mm. And i didn't like how they sit on the top of the shroud. So I took a die grinder with a carbide bit and opened them up so the Halo sits inside the shroud.

    You could make them separate orders, but you'd likely have to pay more in shipping. Sounds like you're group buy is starting to fill up, I'd say just keep the conversation going, and it won't be long (keep it at the top)!

    I just got done cutting my reflector bowl bigger.
    I just cut it along the factory circle line... Hopefully it be big enough, because the circle is a PERFECT circle with no jagged up spots lol

    Is so ready for some projectors to go on!!!

    Ps: does anyone know a way to aim them without putting the housing back on the truck?

    Anybody know of a good writeup for the fxr's on a 1st gen? Right now I'm going to do the mini h1 but am still considering doing fxr's.

    Yeah I know how it's done I would just like to see it. Securing them is the only thing I'm worried about. And what's the big difference between fxr's and mini's? Is the beam from the fxr's just wider?

    Hey guys, i just saw a TRS video about using steelstick to hold the projectors in place for aimming before JB Kwik the back....

    So if u were to use the Steelstick and then JB Kwik to permanently mount it, does that mean u do not need to use nuts and bolts and drill the 4 holes?
