i think it would look great, i have the single halo with the black housing. Just a note thou, after about 6 months my halo bulbs blew. So hook them up to a seperate toggle switch so if it does happen it doesnt look silly with only one halo on

Hmm...people have told me that the eBay projector halos are troublesome. Is there any other alternative besides retrofit?

Fenix, is there anyway to replace the LED in the projector?  I want some, but dont want the rings burning out

I was reading gen7accord and a forumer remarked that after changing the burnt out LEDs, his whole instrument panel lighting burnt out. That's why I'm wary to get this dual halos from eBay...but they look really really nice. 

Caught between style and money.

Well there is another way, a custom job. Removing the entire led housing and placing a cold cathode tube in there. It would also be much brighter. BTW the light output is vastly dimmer than what you see on the pics. when the headlights are on you cant see the halos. Thats why i hooked them to a seperate toggle switch.
 
The weekend of may 5th im gonna be doing my stereo system, provided all goes well and there arent any hitches i have plans to re do the halos. So ill let you guys know how it turns out. I know its a long time to wait, but ill try and get step by step pics along the way.

Unless you are going to retro the housings, with projectors, you aren't going to have the cutoff and your not going to have the true benefits of HID.
