No worries, no rush! Just wanted to be sure I didn't miss anything, that's all. Thanks for the time and effort you're putting into this stuff, Raging!

Take care,

i know alot of people may be waiting on these, but in all seriousness, i don't think i will be making them mainstream.. just too much work.. maybe some arms need to be pulled for me to make another set for someone.

No worries, Rage. If you do end up feeling an urge to crank some more out, or catch wind of anyone who is making/selling them, please let me know! Thanks!

Yes it is, and again thank you for the head start.

Thos are just taped on so we can see the 3 eyes. It is hard to see, but doing the ring on the left really adds some depth to all of this since the other 2 are pretty flush.

The led's seem to be mixed up so I am not sure what colors match since we have 2 different types.

Was thinking about going whiter, but am not sure about led's. I have seen some ultra bright led's (18,000 mcd) out on the net, but not sure how this mcd stuff works. I would assume the higher the mcd the brighter the look.

I have already made the 3 rings for the other light so all I ned is some led's and wire them up.

Also, was thinking about doing something with the orange corner light. Can these be tinted and will they still be functional?

They are paintable, you would only need a very thin even coat to cover the acrylic and then you would be able to get a different color rod..


I'll check to see what white leds, i do have but you can always order pre-wired leds from oznium, but you somewhat correct with the MCD, but with white, it also coinsides with the color level.. i.e. yellowish tint.. blueish tint.. i've seen the oznium ones, and those are really super bright white color.

I see oznium white led's are 8000 mcd, but they dont list anything as far as color goes with a 30degree veiwing angle.

Again, I have seen 18000 mcd with 15 degree veiwing angle.
http://www.superbrightleds.com/specs/w18015_specs.htm

I want them to be bright and would assume that there would be a huge difference between 8,000 and 18,000

There wont be anymore pics until I decide which led's to get and put them in. The more i mess with them the more chance of screwing something up.

So right now we have 1 vote for only the 2 rings, do we have any others?

Well, just ordered up some 30,000 mcd with 20 degree veiwing angle super bright white. Interesting how they will look being 30k and what color temp they will look. Will have to post some new pics once i get them and pop them into the rings.

Ya that is a nice job.

I bought some projectors off Ebay for my HIDs. So far so good

Oh, and personally I didn't turn on the Halo rings on my car. I bought the lamps for the projector. Looks like a 5 Series BMW really

Halos are done, installed and all sealed back up

Now I need to decide if I want to go with hid's or just get an adaptor harness.

Let me know if anyone wants pics before they are installed. Probably will be at least another week before I install them
