I might!, be able to do something like a group buy this summer, but I really dont know how to through one of these things together other than send them some measurements and headlight, or two, and let them fab. some angel eyes (For those who dont know fab. is fabrication)

OR one of us or myself could find a decent website that already makes the specific diameter of the opening for either or both head light openings regardless of shape Satsuriku

But don't worry Aaron's got the measuring covered, I'll do it tomorrow morning I got some 50-80mm cutouts, on paper, from autocad class. I'll let you know what size and we'll go from there. I will, not promise anything on the fact that these will be produced. I'm just saying I'll look into it, and don't wait for me if you, whoever, find away. Awesome! Tell us about it.

Also isn't oznium a site sponsor on aleromod?

I have looked at a few manufacturers of CCFL tubes. They can be made in any shape and any size....they are basically like a neon tube, and are used in many different applications including LCD backlights. Not that expensive either.

In the alero headlights, unless you have projectors, they would look rediculous IMO. Rectangle assembly with a round circle. Retrofit some projectors and then get some halos.

ya thats why I don't need them now but in the future I would like to retrofit some projectors with HIDs so if I got them this summer or whatever and stored them then I would have them around in case I did mod the headlights

Ok I got the dimensions on photobucket.com do I post the web address? also ANDERDRA how much would it cost for you to do a projector and angel eye headlight for both high and low beams? and with a HID conversion I hope that makes sense. Im in a hurry sorry.

sorry to sound like an idiot, but what's the point of halos anyway?
are they just there to look pretty? or are they actually useful in some way?

just to look pretty. I dont know if I actually will tho. I think im going to go with projectors more than angel eyes, but it would still look different than stock. It would also be cool if I could do it myself.

I prefer angel eye to projectors. It would be really interesting if you actually complete the set with Eyes. You could even make some cash out of it...

This is the set that I did...this was using LEDs to illuminate the halo though.

Actually I have other pics of what you guys are calling "Burgundy" is actually more of a plum or purple in reality. Its the light shining on it that is changing the color. I will try and find the pics on my back-up drive.

Anderbra, I love the LED tails.
