Man that's coming along nicely

Whoa - those headlights look wicked. Too modern for the style of my setup but I'll bet they work a lot better than the old sealed beams. They would look great with some PIAA 510 Ion fog lamps I use to run. From the sides they appeared to be bright blue, directly in front they were radiation yellow. Sliced through fog like daylight, but looked too modern so I put them on my late model daily driver.

Love those lights if the trim rings don't fit how did you hold the lights in?

low79fx · 12-09-2009, 11:24 PM

I used the stock rings but had to enlarge the i.d. to slip over lamp.I will have to warn you do not let it get away from you as it will bend the hell out of them and beat the crap out of your hands to say the least.But yeah the rings are in place to hold lights in place.

I went with the same air gap intake that you have. The reason i did was so i could run the wire through the gap and it made the eng bay look alot cleaner.
I would post you a pic but im in afganistan and my truck is in pooler GA. lol Just some food for thought if you wanted to hide some of that wireing.

Was wonderin I'd like to get a pair of them for my 67 c10, would i have to change the wiring harness or something to use them or could i just use the original harness/wiring, also is there a code or name for these lights to ask for in the site u got them from? thanks for the help ur truck is looking great

low79fx · 08-03-2010, 08:19 PM

The ones I used were for 5 3/4" dia. headlights since GMC have the duals,the ones you will need are the 7" dia. being a Chevy with singles.As per the wiring I did not upgrade anything other than rewire the whole truck.I was in the process of installing a rewiring kit when it came to doing the headlights I went ahead and upgraded to these Halos.I am including this link should take you directly to the 7" dia. halos on the sight. If it doesn't work just use the link on my original post and search 7" halos on the sight search option. Hope this helps.
