Type of headlight ?

Was curious if anyone knows what type of light BMW uses for headlight halo ? was driving and noticed how clear and bright the halo was. The aftermarket kit I Have for the 14 uses CFL bulbs, which aren't as clear. Is there any type of halos like the BMW for the Camaro ?

They're LEDs through an acrylic fiber-optic. Huge MF'in module per ring. Expensive as hell.

63117398766 is the part number for most of the above LED lighting modules you've linked---except the bottom one, that's some aftermarket stuff.

I know they have the LED for the Camaro. But I doubt they have the acrylic fiber-optic for it.

Some people are selling led kits like this now with the acrylic diffuser rings.

NOT promoting Oracle at all but maybe this helps your comparison.

I cant for the life of me get a good picture on my own, so I will reference the one Luke put on the facebook page. I had a C5 member, Lerick Customs, make me quad halo/HID projector headlights because I liked the look of the BMW lights so much. I promise theyre perfect in person. Best money I've spent on my car yet IMHO

**Kudos to Luke for the kick ass headlights. Took a 2015 1ss non-rs package and made it one of a kind with Quad HIDs/halos/demon eyes
**search @Lerickcustomdesigns on facebook

Looks awesome. If you don't mind me asking. How much did that cost ?

I would reach out to Luke at Lerick Customs for a quote - hes a super nice dude and a C5 member. He goes by llcamaroguy on the forum. I don't mind telling you what it cost me, but I also don't know if that's info he would prefer to keep to himself? Just reach out on facebook and tell him youre interested in the lights he made for me back in March - that should be enough for him to remember.

I'm sure it would be ok to give a ballpark cost though, so it was under $1000 to have it all done. I looked at the cost of retrofitting and installing RS headlights onto my car and it was more expensive so the custom HIDs and halos are the way to go.

I just saw in your sig that you have morimoto HID, aftermarket fogs, and projector headlights. Sounds like you've got a similar headlight build to what I posted above. I cant tell from the pics - what do your Headlights look like??
