No I was talking about the brightness of the halo's themselves... I'm not sure we are allowed to run them alongside our normal lights once it's dark (not at their full brightness anyway) There are kits here that switch them off when the headlights are on, and others that dim them.

I've just had confirmation of 10 days delivery from the states  RRS gone

Ah! I understand now.

Good luck with your install; let me know if you want a set of clear or smoked sidemarkers while you've got your headlights cracked open!  I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy!

I'm just checking as I've now had a weird email from Lightwurkz. (a week late)

They say the 120mm will be a horseshoe, and the 106mm will be a full circle.

This right? The UK Umnitza dealer didn't mention that when I ordered them.


Edit:

Just checked your pics and yours are full circle, Lightwurkz must be wrong then.

No prob I'll email the supplier to check. RRS gone

Hi mate,

thanks for that, am waiting to hear what I'm getting from UK suppier!

Another question ref the halo's though while you're here .

How are they actually fixed in the headlight? Plus. the 106mm dia halo (the one that fits into the headlight lens), is that glued in and what adhesive have you used?

I'm worried about vibration shaking them lose and me having to re-split the headlights at a later date..

Also, how much are your crystal side reflectors? RRS gone

They come with these adhesive pads (which I didn't use). Instead, I used a two-part plastic epoxy: the kind that comes in a plunger, and I used it sparingly.

A tip: be extremely careful with the plastic chrome finish...it's extremely fragile. If you use tape to hold the rings in place while the epoxy sets, make sure you don't tape to the chrome bits directly: you will pull the finish off.

Don't ask how I know...

Clear side-reflectors are $110, which includes the shipping overseas...  I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy!

cheers for the heads up

£110 shipped?

How would take payment if I wanted a set? RRS gone

That's US$: 110 quid is gouging, though I did make these myself from scratch.




PM'ed!  I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy!
