7" Halo's
« on: November 16, 2012 - 09:06:59 AM »
Good morning All -
I was speaking to a member here regarding Illumin8s and he asked me about 7" Halo's H4 Headlights for his '74 Cuda.  Has anyone installed these on their car yet and if so what do they look like?  I look at this months "poster" car when you come to the site and think the Halo's may look cool.

I bought them ( not the 7" obviously) for the Challenger , went to install them and you had to hack up the part that holds the bulb to clear the Halo bulbs. I was OK with that as I can get new ones to go back to original. But.... what killed it for me was then I discovered I had to hack up the fender to make enough clearance for the bulb... :nono:  That I wasn't willing to do. So they sit in the box in the garage..... ::)

Never thought about the depth.  Not sure why they would be deeper than the stock units though.

I can get short H4 bulbs but shipping from here would not be cheap
