Hi all,
New owner long time luster of the 300!
So this is my first non introduction post and as someone stated in my intro post "let the moddings begin"
Two of the things I want are HID and CFL Halo's but I have make sure you understand the "type" of person I am.. I guess anal would work.. I am a former Corvette guy so the level of my mods has to be on part with what is offered in the aftermarket for the Vette's. I realize that the HID will pretty much be a swap out, but I am worried about the Halo's. My last daily driver was an 01 Inferno Red Stratus and I wanted clear corners, of course there is NO aftermarket for the Stratus so I had to make my own clear headlights (which required the whole bake at 250 degrees and pray you don't screw up a 400 dollar capsule, and burn the skin off your fingers, and stab yourself with the straight screwdriver three times).
From what I gather it's the same deal with AAC Halo's or I can send them the capsules and they will install them (for $175.00 install fee???). Do I get any guarentee that they correctly re-sealed the lights? Mine never leaked but that's because I did them... I don't particularly ever want to do it again and would rather pay someone if they guarentee the work.
Also when I do the HID swap, I guess that's the low beam? Do I have to worry about blinding anyone? I have the Smartvision system in my 300 and the stock projectors have a razor sharp cutoff which if adjusted right I am guessing shouldn't cause any issues?
I guess the other way would be to swap out to OEM HID capsules, but are they auto leveling?
Thanks in advance for the tips and advice, I have searched the forums and gathered some great info so far. Help steer me in the right direction so I can do it right the first time!
