Fitted the halos today from Teddy, they look brilliant, These CCFL are so white that they make my Xenons look yellow. (Teddy told me thay they would)
I took the wires from the CCFl via the main headlight rubber seal and then taped up any gaps with black installation tape, I also covered the old side light aperture with black installation tape as well.
I stuck all the CCFL's with double sided tape (before applying the tape I scraped off with a scalpel the slight moulding join on the CCFL's as to maximise the bonding surface and stuck two layers tap on top of each other. I hope they stay fixed I did not like the paper clips as you can see then from some angles. I think that I will be OK until it gets hot again, as the heat may soften the tape glue.
There are the Pic's
Daytime :D
