This is pretty awesome props to you my friend. Quick question though sorry if it has been asked I must have missed it, but what do you use to seal the lights back up?

where'd you get the halo's from?

I want to do that to my car. I have to reopen mine again anyway because I didn't seal them right the first timee. I had to do the oven method because I lent my friend my heat gun. The oven method worked fine for all of my other cars, but for my evo it didn't work as well as I wanted it to.

great job overall man.

Are you some kind of underground vendor? If so, how much do you charge and turnaround time?

All the headlights ive posted are from Australia. why would you even consider me when evodave does headlight in your country..

Im posting this thread so people know what different headlight specs look like on different colored CT9As. Save you from doing any guess work. Glad to give any tech info if needed incase anyone wants to give it a go themselves.

Really, you don't think the head/tail lights add something extra (for the positive) to the car? I bought my car with them already installed, I don't think I could have purchased an Evo 8/9 without these. The chrome look just looks really ricey to me. Just my .02.

Products look good, keep up the awesome work.

I use the OEM adhesive. I just push it back in the groove with a flat head screw driver

great job overall man.
Halos I used for this project were from:
gadgetmaster.com.au (Aus business)

I have also bought:
Advance Automotive Concepts halos (US company):
These guys are pricy but their halos are pretty good

Im looking to halos from:
Matt at Theretrofitsource.com (US company) in the next few weeks on a set of Evo X headlights.

CT9A halo dimensions if anyone is interested:
- Low beam housing = 80mm rings
- High beam housing = 100mm rings
- Foglight housing = 70mm rings
