Don't do it man. Their product is junk. The ring they send you does not fit properly with the stock diffuser. The ring is a perfect circle while stock is not meaning some LEDs will not hit the diffuser properly. The pictures on their site are very deceiving. I tried it myself and thought I screwed up. I ended up sending it to them and they did the same exact job and even lied about a few things and had even for some reason but off part of the lamps that sticks out to allow you to line it up properly. I can’t think of what it is called, but I ended up braking a lamp because of that being broken off as my bumper cover got stuck. But all in all, it looks like garbage because like I said, the ring they send does not match the stock ring. There are better options out there.

I've done it OK :-) Looks OK.
My headlights are NON-RS, but I take your point.
My UK wiring is different, so I'm taking it into a local dealer this afternoon to be tested for Road Worthy-ness.

Thank you anyway.

The install just required a lot of pre-planning, research, head-trip trial run movies :-)

Once I started it was fine. Only a matter of confidence.

My UK IVA wiring is the issue, not the product.

Switchback blinkers are on the way next!

Very Nice and it looks like you have a non RS which I do as well so my question is how is the halo mounted on the halogen reflector?

The Halo's LED rings have very very strong double-sided tape on the back.
Very strong.
That helps you get them positioned well and firmly.
Once I was happy with the position, I used Araldite (http://www.go-araldite.com/) two-part Epoxy glue to secure them at four points, 2 top, 2 bottom, mainly filling in from behind.
Once the headlight goes together again it also clamps them in :-)

Yes, same for the Fogs.
I then wired each side together and spliced into the side running lights.
