Should look pretty sweet. Going with dual projectors, RGB halos inside for demon eyes, and trs switchbacks on all four housings. I'll delete the turn signal bulb and just use the switchbacks as turn signals. All black housings with the CF hydro dip, I'm thinking its gonna look pretty sweet.

Zdayz 2015 woohoo!

YES!!! That'll be sick! LMK how the hydro dip turns out! I'm intrigued

Check the sizing on Mazda lights. You can pick them up cheap. And if the size of the projector is right you can cut them up and use the bucket and lens for the second projector

Good to know! I've thought about doing an actual second projector but I didn't know if heat would be an issue...

Zdayz 2015 woohoo!

What do you use to secure the 2.5" lens to the signal's shroud?

The automotive goop that's listed on the first page.

Those hydrodipped shrouds look great! what does that process cost?

Well....looks like I'm in for another Halo project.

One of my halos went out. They don't sell that style anymore so looks like I have to do both. Going to make some other changes too I think.

I heated up a box cutter and opened a set. I used epoxy to close them. Took some time but it works.

KaienZ34 · 08-29-2015, 09:18 PM

I'm still loving the led strip in the light but to chicken to open them.

KaienZ34 · 08-29-2015, 09:21 PM
