I like these

Another option for those that dont want to get the halo like everyone else.

Some folks dont understand what it means to "Customize." I call them blenders because their cars look exactly like the last one I saw. I think these are alright. I may consider it but I will not be the guinea pig.

Any interest in retrofits for the camaro? I did retros for the cobalt at cobaltss.net and got a lot of great feedback but traded the cobalt for the camaro and looking to make some extra cash these days. I had to use some nice BiXenon projectors that look like they would fit into the camaro headlights. Might just have to make a pair and see how they turn out.

Anyone interested, pm me or email me at jimbobikr97@yahoo.com

Be careful with these lights on ebay. I once bought replacement fog lights for my BMW on ebay. They were very shinny and pretty as these headligths and the insides melted within two days of use. Total crap.

That is true. I haven't had that happen to me but a friend of mine did. However, the lights do look good, I'd go with the projector retro fit also...

If you like that look then I would see if you could find an LED strip. I'm sure someone like TheRetrofitSource or AAC could get you one. Then add some Morimoto projectors, paint the reflector and shrouds flat balck. You would hook up the LED strip just like you would with an aftermarket Halo. That would definately be different and this style is starting to become popular. I've seen them on both Audi and Mercedes. After all it was the BMW that started out with the Halo.

I would trust an OEM halogen housing or a good aftermarket housing before I would just use these. I used one of the better aftermarket housings on one of mine and and it has worked great....no melting or clarity issues at all. They are $100 deliver but come apart much easier than the OEM ones. PM if you want the name.

Morimoto Mini H1 projectors work perfect. I've got them in mine and they are awesome.
