head light mod?

just shooting it out there to see what people think, my good freind has a 2010 camaro with the halo and projector lights on it. i had my truck parked next to it and noticed that the halos are about the size of a 2d1 headlight bulb. i have been thinking about ways to modify my head ights so i san run H.I.D. head lights and thought to my self that the halo lights of a camaro would looks sweet, everything would have to be highly modified of course. i know its a Chevy product but it wouldnt bother my if i could make it work,

any inputs?

Can't you buy halo 7" round lights on E-bay?

I know these aren't real HID lights. I think you can find HID ones on there too, but for way more $$$$

Could be an interesting mod.

I am looking to use the 7" headlights that have the turn signal integrated into them. As I am switching my upper grill section that has the turn signals to one that has the signals in the grill.

I have seen some for the older street rods, check out street rodding mags and you may find them.

Yeah, that's what I'll do if I do anything, get me two H-4 conversion kits for 7" round headlights and wire them with relays .... but without any of that halo stuff (illegal here anyway). Add two Unity 6" fog lights and I'm good on the '77.

Go to: Truck Parts and Truck Accessories for Chevy, GMC, Ford and Dodge Trucks from LMCTruck.com
They have a conversion kit available for just that type of modification for your truck.

I'm undecided on the blackout ones, as to whether I like the look or not. Would be nice to see in person...
