Default Halo Projectors - 96 Accord Sedan

I've been trying to find a thread or something with examples of a 96Accord Sedan EX/LX with Halo Projectors. Havn't been able to find any. The reason for my question is, I've been thinking about getting it for my Accord, but have had no examples or even something to base my imagination on. I'm afraid of ordering a pair of the lights and finding out it's fuggin ugly on the car. And my friends are saying no, but I really want to see a picture or example of some sort.

I have a 96 Accord LX - Champagne color....(hard to imagine a car I've owned for more than 10 years be upgraded in the looks department.) Was thinking about tinting the windows, following a black/champagne kinda theme. Please note I've never done anything to ANY car before...so this will be my first step.

So my question is, has anyone had any experience/pictures with halo's on the 96 Accord?

Thanks...

Hello!

I think projectors look REALLY good, the black ones at least. Chrome looks sort of tacky. Heres my carwhen they were on. I also have a pair for sale (exact same ones as in the picture). $110 shipped so let me know and they come with an extra set of bulbs. On gold Accords black projectors with black signal lenses would look sweet!

The Halos arent even bright, but they look mean at night! Sorry some of the pics are bad quality. Let me know though! I am a trusted member, as I have sold thing on this forum before without a problemand am in the top 10. (We've had a problem with spammers and cons "selling" things lately.

The halo rings look brighter than what they really are. But let me know asap if youd like them, b/c I am going to put them on eBay really soon w/ a $110 starting price + 20 shipping. The very inside lens appears blue because I have a blue coated bulb in the socket. You can put a regular bulb(included) in there to get rid of it. One has a small hole in the bottom, but doesnt affect it in any way, and you cant see it when they are intalled.

Yea, I'm interested. I'll PM you for more info.

But thanks for the pics. It's exactly what I need for a point of reference. And true, personal preference, but I don't want to spend 100+ just to find out the headlights look ugly when I put them on.

Would any of you recommend ebay halo projectors?

I have a few lined up, but I'm not sure of the reliability...
Once again, I've never done anything like this before (modding? a car).

eBay1 - Just an example. Any thoughts/opinions?

Thanks, and I PM'd you back haha.

Do the halo's add any light to your vision or are they just there for aesthetic reasons?
They look good at night (w/o halos in the first pic), almost looks like integ lights.


And if you could, can you get a pic of the field of vision your projectors give at night?

The halo rings only are for looks. They dont add any light output.

This is before the SilverStars and before I adjusted them.

i got a 99 coupe and have the same black halo's on it. personally i love it but if you are one of the very designated type of driver u might not like the effect of halos .. its a bit different then stock.. light path is much wider but it doesnt have as much ranger. but it looks bad *** .. im still keeping mine coz they look classy+mean.


p/s: my question is what else can u do with thez halo projectors exept adding blue bulbs which is actually nice but i need something like HID kit or something which i cant add on thez haloz. so wats the neext step?

Another question -- Maybe someone can help out.

Are halo's the closest(/)cheapest you can get to mimick the BMW's angel eyes? Maybe there are more expensive alternatives that can mimick the eyes really well, but I'm looking to spend less than $200.
