Default its a sad day for headlights....

FINALLY almost finished with my headlight project and there was an incident with a DDE ring

Anyone know where I can get a ring from the Anzo projectors? It's the smaller outside ring and I just need one.

I don't think its something I can just call Anzo up for.. I believe there in Taiwan anyone have a phone number ?

You can try figuring out the size of the ring and call Umnitza. Check their website, www.umnitza.com

What's wrong with one of your halos? Did you wire them right?

oh yeah, they're wired right. That took me a minute to figure out though. Was freaking out cause I though I broke something after ripping out the LEDs

I got the halo working just fine, the problem is I was in too much of a hurry while painting it. I didn't let the coats dry completely so now its a big mess and looks like poop.

......why are you painting your halo you ask????

:D oh you'll see

I looked at that site and they only have the rings. My problem is its not just the ring... its acutally not really the ring at all, it's the little plastic outter ring that the halo goes into. If you've seen a set of Anzo's you'll know what Im talking about. That's why I was thinking I can only get them from Anzo.

.... let me see if I can get a picture

thanks just did a google search for Anzo USA (don't know why I didn't think of that before, only tried Anzo) and got a phone number and e-mail. Just waiting for a response now.

Thanks guys, i'll keep you updated.

But if anyone might have one of these rings lying around or know somewhere I can get this exact ring still let me know. I don't know if Anzo will let me order just that part.

I highly doubt that they'll sell you just one halo. I don't really think Anzos and all other aftermarket companies assemble the headlights themselves. They had venders to do it for them and they just sell them. They don't particularly buy independent parts from vendor either because the headlights were not designed to be taken appart for mod. Well, good luck with your search

that was my initial thought... hense why I posted in the first place. I figured i'd try though.

What I was hoping to find a set someone has that's maybe partly damaged from a front end wreck or something that can't use them but still has a good halo

help! help!
