Hey fellas, yeah the Halos are yellow when turned off. However, the only time my Halos are off is when the car is off since I tapped a 12V source that is on/off with the ignition. I used 100mm, but from seeing DC's Halos the 90mm looks awesome as well. Wiring them up how I did is not difficult but it does take some testicular fortitude, lol. You have to tap a wire inside the cabin, then run the new wires through the rubber gasket where the stock wires run into the engine bay. Takes time to do it right. After I did this just to be extra careful I put a bead of black silicone around where my wires ran out.
However, if u get the amber glowing Halos they are white when turned off.. Soo choice is yours. I didn't tap the parking lights cause I did that on my last car bd didn't like having to TURN tem on and off all the time. This setup is on with the car and off with it. Glad you guys like it. I think it ads a WHOLE NEW look to the car. Thanks. Any questions feel free to post or PM me.

Thanks. Ill look into this tomorrow. Now I can keep driving with the parking lights on XD I love how it looks lol. Like an Audi R8 but upside down lol.


Now.... if only I can make that turned on in auto lights mode but keep it turned on when the car is turned on.

Ok fellas I got a crazy idea so bare with me here... I ordered the INGS +1 kit and for those who havent seen it there is NO integrated turn signals or fog lights. The FRS version includes mountable external blinkers, but then I got a thought looking at Retrofit Source's web site. What if, I mean just what if I installed the kit and installed the Amber Rings and wired them directly into my turn signal assembly... I wouldnt need to install the dangly turn signals and I would have them integrated into the light housing. So any input? Im eager to hear you guys input
