If the halo's are the lights on the concept, then I don't really like them.

As stated above me...no one can out run the Motorola. Just cause you got away from me, doesn't mean you will get away from 5 of my buddies down the road with spikes..

or the 4th Gen State Trooper's Camaro that roams the area for just such an event. Keep him on quick dial.

The_Beast_ · 07-17-2008, 04:13 AM

Didn't you hear? The Camaro will come standard with a radio jammer and run flats.

^ I cant believe I forgot about that option. Getting that for sure.

OK, I have read a few things talking about installing the halos for the first time that it was kind of tricky.

When it comes to replacement it is just a swap job like most headlights or is it tricky also?

TheCaptain · 08-07-2008, 12:19 AM

Depends if you are replacing the whole unit, or if the unit was designed to have "rechargable" bulbs.

That also is not a picture of a crashed car, that is a crushed car, as in, ''the crusher.''

Any idea on the street legal HID kits brands, or legal bulb colors and strenght?

Tx1Lt · 12-19-2010, 11:24 PM

Way to resurrect a dead thread!

I think all aftermarket hid kits are not really street legal. At least every one I've seen says "for off-road use only".

Well its like the TINT law, if there is some doubt in the officers mind about the tint and or light output from your car, he will issue you a summons and then its up to YOU to show the judge at traffic court that this was a manufacturers installed device and not a light that is other then what is required by LAW..

Thanx to Yahoo.

With regards to HID, the OE limit is 4100K and the kit should be DOT certified to be legal. Anything else is illegal since it harms the driver or other road users.

Correct me if im wrong but I was under the impression the stock hits were 4300k?
