led halos... he posted up some info on it before somewhere around here

hey weiss if you have any more pics (leds halos by themselves) or whatever post em up

oh ya i like the other pic you have better. for some reason this one looks sorta incandescent white (off yellow) but the other one was cool blue. im pretty sure the ones he got were cool blue and this pic was just wierd because of the flash or something

It looked like that would have been possible. Not sure though on how to do it.

The LED halo I did is not bright at all. I still like it though. I'm pretty sure CCFLs are the brightest but I don't want to deal with the issues that they pose, that's also why I don't like HIDs, too many problems.
