Halo Headlight question.

Again I just order another halo headlight, from another ebay seller. He say it doesnt come with bulb, my question is

1: Is all halo headlight use H1 and H3 bulb ?
2: Is silver start good light bulb, or any other brand that is good, i want it bright and last long.
3: Anyny web site can I can buy headlight bulb from, auto zone sell for $20 each bulb ( H1 and H3 )
4: I knew halo thing will be burn out after couple week, so I I dont want to use it, just leave the halo wire alone without connect it to parking light ?

1) I believe 99% of aftermarket headlights use H1's or H3's (H3's I belive)
2) Sylvania Silverstars are excellent headlights, I have them in my Monte and I love them.
3) You should be able to buy bulbs at alot of online stores. Google is your friend.
4) Yes you can go without installing the halo wire.

cause 95-96 headlight different from 97-99 headlight.

all you need to keep the halos from bruning out is a fuse...

what do you mean? like hook up a fuse between the halos and the parking light?

yeah. i dont remember the amprage (s/p) of the Halo, but i belive its probably 10 amps or so... but if you place a fuse between the parking light, and the positive wire on the halo, that will keep it from burning out. my buddy went through a set of halo projectors in a week, then asked me for advice when he bough new ones... we stuck a fuse in the mix, and the halo's have been working evey day for about 11 months now :2cents:

Can you write up an instruction how to do it ? that will be cool.

sh*t i can try, its been so long... i'll give it a go once i get a hold of the guy whos car its on. that way i will know the fuse amps and everything. :thumbsup:

did you just tie the + and the wire to the parking brake to the fuse or did you find something to hold the whole thing together?

i didnt do anything with the parking brake accept for the turbo timer safty switch... :screwy:

Just put an inline fuse holder in the + wire for the halo, it's really not that hard at all, shouldn't take more than 10 minutes.

what can you do to fix the gap inbetween the bumper and halos :popcorn:

buy the right headlights for the car... :2cents:

the thing is they are the right size headlights :popcorn:

then their should only bee a very small gap...

Aftermarket ebay bumper? Aftermarket ebay headlights? If so, that's you're whole problem right there.

no i got them at a place called Envision motor sports here in town

Are they aftermarket though? That's usually the problem with shit like that.

yea they are what do u think i can do to fix this problem

Take it to a bodyshop and have them alter the bumper so the gap goes away. Or just live with it like I have been.

about the fuse, just get 10amp fuse and connect each cable to one side of the fuse, and parking brake cable to another side of the fuse ?

Why does everybody connect something to the parking brake cable? No killer, you just cut the power line, and then insert the fuse and crimp everything back together.

the owner email me told me that, I need connect my halo to my parking light. So what cable should my halo connect to ?

connect halo to the parking lights on the bumper snip the wires now connect the wires red to the green connect the fuse along with the wires then the black wire to the black do both sides the same way it should light up the halo hooking up the headlights have you done this yet if not let me know and i will let u know how to hook that up the fuse is optional

i want see the pix, where you conect the fuse.

the positive wire... between your OEM wire harness, and the new Halo light. so you have the new halo wires right? ok so connect the ground from the Halo to the oem PARKING LIGHT (not handbrake :screwy: ) then connect the positive wire from the HALO to a 10 amp fuse,on the other side of the fuse, connect the OEM positive PARKING LIGHT (not handbrake :screwy: :screwy:) wire. EASY! ;)

i want see the pix, where you conect the fuse. alot of pep connect a fuse to the halo but i dont think it makes a diff so i did not use one that is what the ground wire is for the black one so it wont short out try this like i said and they will work i try to get some pic how i hooked everything up

the ground wire is to prevent it from frying!?!?! :screwy: killa, USE A FUSE! unless you want them to burn out just like every other persons who didnt use a fuse :2cents:

How good are these Halo head lights?
i need to buy new head lights because the person that owned the car before me limo tinted the head lights and i couldnt see a god dam thing.
I tryed all the tint remover stuff none of that worked so i used a razor blade by the time i was done the head lights looked like i sanded off the tint.

neways the head lights are scratched to hell and back and i was looking at these head lights as a option

Try not to bring back threads older than a month unless you are the original poster and have new info to add. Granted your question is legitimate, please just post up a new thread. Welcome to AF.

Some people have good experiences with aftermarket headlights and some have bad. I suggest not ordering from ebay, get them directly from an online source. The halos will most likely burn out, but there's an article on www.dsmtuners.com on how to replace them yourself if you have a bit of electrical knowledge.
