Oh, take out the bulbs if they're the twist ones. It's been a while since I baked mine. When I did my demon eyes my headlights had already been opened so I didn't have to bake them.

Alright the only twist bulb I saw was the amber one. Which I just removed. So I leave the projector and stock RS halo stuff alone?

Yeah I don't think you can take that our without opening the headlight.

Today has just been a complete horrible situation with these halos. UPS drops them off today, I open up the box and instantly notice the positive wire on one of the halos wasn't attached the the halo. I figure ok, I'll just solder it back on. Wrong. I go to solder it and there's nothing for the wire/solder to attach to.

So basically I'm stuck here with my daily driver front end off, headlights baked and seperated, and with one working halo. I wrote them a nasty email about my experience. Hopefully something gets done quick. My car is sitting outside with the car cover on it. It's supposed to rain in a couple days. Hopefully they send me a new halo overnight or something so I don't risk getting wires wet.

The demon eye? Mine did the same, I was finishing up the install and the pos cable just fell off. You should be able to garb some solder and put it back on, that's what I did.

There's no solder there to solder the wire back on with. It's just a flat surface. Believe me, I tried. I don't know how to explain it.

Basically there's nothing for the solder to grab onto to hold the wire to the halo.

Dang dude, this sucks. I wish I was closer I'd come give you a hand. I hope you can get it figured out.....

Just an update, they took fault for the bad solder and sent out two new replacements.

The car is currently stored away for winter but the halos were working perfectly until then. No problems yet!

Remember one thing...Hi heat and LEDS' do not get along...so those of you that are running xenon bulbs or hid ...the heat is pretty intense for leds...and sometimes the solder in the circuit of the led can melt and short them out because of the heat range...I found it out when the previous owner of my car replaced the halogen bulbs with hid (China)...the halos burned out...so I took apart the headlights myself and replace the halos and reinstalled the halogens...I also installed Tahoe drls and run with high intensity leds...Don from xtremeledonline helped me out...and gave me a pretty good education on Halos...worth mentioning
