Smile Change the Color of your Halos

Does anyone know if its possible to change the color of the halos on projection head lights? I've seen BMWs with different color halos and then I came across this pic while lookin at the 2010 Camaro.

this pic is prolly just photoshopped...but it looks bad ass. I have a 09 Black SS and I would love to do this. Anyone have anything for me?

It's easy.
Just take out the old LED's and solder in new LED's the color of your choice.
I did mine in blue.

The pic of the Camaro is not photoshopped, that is the Camaro BLACK Concept. It uses Red CCFL Halos, that are not street legal, as the car is just a show car.

As for changing the halo colour in your headlights, easy, pull the bottom LEDs out of the bottom of the lights, and solder in new red (or colour of choice) ones.

I pulled my LED halos out, and put in CCFL ones, about 10x brighter!

Your not taking the halo out.
Your just pulling the bulb out.
If I remember right you pull them from the bottom behind a rubber seal.
If you halfway know how to solder/desolder it's easy.
