want halo headlights

I really like the way those chevy and escalade lights look, the ones with the little halo and are bluish looking. anyone know where to buy these lights and what they cost?

That's one of the dumbest comments I've ever heard. I have halos and I don't wanna be a ricer or a beamer, I just like the look. No body going to mistake my truck for either of those two. It's just a different look that not every body else has. Mine work great and don't leak.

ADT, Where did you buy your lights from? I remember you posting about them at some point in time where you mentioned only 3 LEDS of the 6 are actually functional. Also, were they "plug and play" with no modifications? I really like the look of your lights but I'm afraid of tampering with any wiring in the vehicle. Ironically, I'm an electrical engineer...haha.

halos

it's plug and play, you can buy them on ebay, there are different kinds of angel eye or halos as you put it. buy the one adt has but with 6 led that lights up his model only lights up 3, it's cool, what ever you prefer, find one which has screw on the back where the projector is, so that you can take the metal plate out for better light output... If your gonna install the halo just connect it with your parks lights, connect the red wire to the brown wire and black to black, the halos will turn on when the park light's are on. if you got any more questions you know where to find me... peace

you can wire the LEDs up to blink with your turn signals, or wire them to come on with the halo rings when you turn your parking lights on. the corner lights are plenty bright enough to see beside you when you blinker is on. but as 03Screw said, its plug and play, but they dont fit flush to the fender like the stock ones do.

hey 03Screw, what screw are you talking about on the backside that makes the light output better??

i agree with ADT by the way, its a much better, street style look.

I looked on ebay and there are no projector headlights for an 08. Are headlights on an 08 the same as 04-07? I imagine they are. Also, does anyone know of any halo headlights that have a black housing that do not have the bulge on the lens? I've noticed the only projectors that have a black housing on ebay for the 04-07's have the bulge. The only projectors that do not have a bulge have a chrome housing...something I do not want - I want the nice flush headlight look like on the stock lamp covers. I'm in the same boat as Blackout-FX4 trying to completely black everything out.

This is the bulge I'm talking about:


I like these (but they have the chrome housing and don't seem to be very "plug and play"):
