It would be nice if they would show pics of them in the car they're trying to sell them for, huh?

i agree with bull i hate seeing ads for things that either have no picture or none pictured for thr listed application. i was thinking of customizing the newer charger headlight assembly with the rings around the lights into my 68 charger have them hidden behind the flip up doors. but i keep getting other things for it instead of finishing the body work.

says "for sealed beam cars only" ???
thought about it a little, guess the Charger does use sealed beam headlights... dooh  :icon_smile_blackeye:

Another question though... in order to see the halos, the headlight switch would have to be on to open the doors. If the doors are open, the headlights are on. I suppose you could wire the low beams to another switch to turn them off so only the halos are on??

I guess you would have to have a separate switch unless the kit has it tied in with the parklamps maybe?

I have a set of these in the Challenger, but without that halo crap...The lights are set up with those "Blue" bulbs, and you can wire each light as high beam or low beam..I just preferred to wire them correctly, one as low beam and one as high beam each side...

I like the amount of light they put out, as well as the color, but haven't had a chance to see them driving down a road yet....They don't look too awefully bad in the car either, being "Euro" styling and all...

cooter do you have any pics you could post up i been looking into these lights for my challenger. are the halo lights wired to run off of your park/marker switch setting? do they stay on when the headlights are on?

Mine do NOT have that "Halo" stuff...They are HID, and have smooth lenses...

I was going to say something but after putting my foot in my mouth in that spoiler thread I was a little gun shy. :icon_smile_blackeye:

Here are the ones I got WITHOUT the Halo stuff...
More pics to come without the flash on camera...Now mind you, the battery was weak....

So basically the halo thing amounts to running lights that go out when you turn them on full? If so I don't see the point with a hidden headlight setup.
