Ok so after about a week of waiting and getting oznium to send me the right lights i got one light all done except for being sealed shut! the first one turned out very good. i will have a video up here shorty to get the full effect of the new look but here are some pics for now! ohh and yes i know the LED strip isnt exactly straight but u try drilling 24 holes in a curved surface 1 cm off center from each other...it was a biatch!!! oh well good enough and not noticeable when the lights are on! Shout out to 2008AltiCoupeDan and Phenom for their help through facebook chat!!

That is a lot of lights...

Looks good though, you should try and tuck away all those wires though

like the black, don't like the LED layout. individual 5mm LEDs look better.... and more organized than your strip.

otherwise good job!

Ok sorry if this is in the wrong place, i hate to say it but im a bit of a noob when it comes to forums haha.... i just got an AAC halo kit and i was wondering anyone knew a place in dallas that would install it for me....personally i dont want to take the risk of messing it up by not sealing it right and letting water get into the headlight. So i just want someone to open the head light, remove the amber casing, add an led strip where the amber used to be, and install the halos....if anyone knows where in dallas i can get this done please email me at [email protected] Thanks alot
