For sure top notch! Within 10mins of having a question Mack and I were on the phone with Joe walking us through the problem. I should get mine finished up this weekend. I can't wait.

Mackman,

Would you please share which options you went with, and if you have the diffuser rings, did you do the frosted mod?

Thanks!

I went with the standard halo kit and I used the diffuser rings. I didn't do the frosted mod and they're still crazy bright!! I did buy another SL module but I haven't hooked it up. I am going to put the drl rings on separate channels so they can be different colors as well as another strip in my hood scoop and footwells.

Thanks. Looks great!

How will I set the drls to be on separate channels, Joe? I got the SL module in the other day and I haven't had a chance to look at it much. I am going to do footwells as well using it. Do I have to cut a hole in the SL box as there's nowhere to put the wires?

I bought 10 ft of the rgb wire I hope it is long enough to go from the drls to wherever I put the SL module... Probably not now that I'm thinking about it.

Another picture of the orange. Looks like the promo pics.

If you put one DRL Halo on port A, and one DRL Halo on port B, you can assign each of those ports to separate channels in the module config. One of our online videos shows how to assign a channel to a port. But you would basically choose an empty channel for that port, and then it will prompt you for a channel name. You can name it "DRL Halo L" and "DRL Halo R" if you want.

The SL module should have come with an instruction sheet. The instruction sheet and hookup diagram is on our website store on the SL Module page. The easiest way is to notch the edge of the case with a dremel big enough for your wires to pass.

Just got mine. going to install soon. Just need to find some open ports :-)

FYI, 1/2" caulk-saver rope also fits in the diffuser ring.

thanks! any recommendations for something other than a dremel?

[sjmautoprod]

Band saw, or, oscillating tools are about the only other options. Some of my customers just used a utility knife for opening the tail lamps. These are similar in construction, so, that may work. It will just take a lot of scoring.

If you find something flexible in similar material you could make one. I was thinking of getting the demon eyes from AAC but putting them inside of diffusers for the headlights if I ever get brave enough to bake them open, but I'm hoping I can simply use the same diffusers I have for the fogs if they're close enough in size

Which they're probably not

But as long as you have enough $$$ anything is possible!
