    Quick question I had with my upcoming project...Has anyone installed halos while doing the bhlm. I was given a led headlight kit from Brite Ass Led's and I plan on doing the bhlm when I instal the Led kit. I figured I'd try to install a halo kit as well since ill have the headlights already opened up for the bhlm. i Just haven't seen anyone with a halo set up without an complete HID projector retrofit

    Yeah I have been looking all over for a write up but haven't had any luck finding one. I'm not familiar with lighting or wirring but I really want to attempt the bhlm and put halos around the led headlights

    Only way it would work is if its a large halo to go around the edge of the reflector bowl, other then that a small one would block the light and you wouldn't have anywhere to mount it to

    Yeah i was thinking That same thing and i really liked the led concepts kit. It's large ring that would basically go around the inner reflective bowl

    I Actually told myself to do that but totally forgot on the day of the sale. So your going to be using the halos around a hid projector type set up? I wish it was possible to use led lights inside a projector setup and completely paint the housing.

    Explain what you mean. Are you referring to using an led bulb in a projector?

    Yes the led bulb inside projector. Correct me if I'm wrong But led bulbs still utilize the reflective bowl therefor it cannot be painted right?

    Does anyone know of a good local Retro-fit installer in the Socal area? I'd like to deal with someone local as I read of some bad complaints from a TRS LS460 Retrofit sale. I'd like to deal with someone face to face if I can.
    I'm currently saving some cash for this next mod. I drive a lot at night and would like to enjoy the drive if I can.
    Thanks.
