If you could put a DIY together that would be great. If people are interested in getting him to do it for you you need to take it to PM's so this thread doesn't get locked.

You already have modded HLs. Why would you want another set?

3rd update:


Was able to get my hands on some Red LEDs. here are the results


Red LED on Red shield (left) vs White LED on Red shield (right). Its pretty obvious that Red LEDs on red shields produce a much better result.

Camera positioned where the shields were NOT visible.

Halo by itself

Positioning the camera further back makes the Halo appear "glarey". You dont see the grooves of the shroud because of this glare. Its not a true representation of what the eye really sees.

^^ At this stage modding headlights is just a hobby in my spare time. Im not an EvoM vendor so please dont post on here asking for my services. Contact me outside the forum and I may consider doing your headlights, if im free. Im on a few forums so its not hard to source my personal contact details.

Just enjoy the pix and build up some courage to give it a go yourself..

What are you using to hold the halos in? Are they glued in or pressed in or something like that?

^^ Halos are held in by thin wire. Tiny holes are drilled into the shrouds with the halos secured to them.
I don't trust glue over time
