Halo Headlight question.

[Killa]

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.

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

[Black Knight 00]

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

[Black99GST]

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

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

[Black99GST]

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.

[Black Knight 00]

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?

[Black99GST]

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

[gthompson97]

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.
