Refuge, i dont know if it's me, but your HALOs look extremely brighter than mine...I have the black housing projectors. did you replace those LEDs or is it just the Chrome housing that makes them look brighter?

It was probably my phone. That is what I used to take the pictures. It has a really bad time with glare. It probably just took the picture brighter than they actually are. I still have the original LED's in there, so they shouldn't be any brighter than yours.

Thanks a bunch, I'd looked all over the place for those LEDs, Lordco Auto Parts quoted me $50 per pair thinking I was showing them BMW headlights
I bought the car with gen 1(I think) projectors, they're almost identical to yours, but the LEDs weren't wired at all, after I wired them I had a hell of a time because the second bulb was dead and not carrying the current I guess.

Yeah I hate those projectors w/halos only because it wasn't more then like 3 months maybe or less before LED's and Halos started burning out. And I've had these projectors for like 10 months already. I didnt look for a How-to only because I've done aircraft wiring and such not to mention speakers, head units, amps, and underglows. You name it I've wired lots of stuff. This How-to is very helpful for anyone not so good at wiring. I took the lazy way out rather then ordering LED's. Advance Auto and most other auto parts stores carry packages of single LED's (pairs of 4 for $10). These ones were 5mm and are extremely bright. Just a thought.....I have recent pics in my gallery if you would like to see how they turned out.
