They cost about 250+ shipping. I recommend getting TheRacerBoss's harness as it ROCKS!!! I don't know where to rate the install difficulty but it is up there. I like challenges so I went for it.

You have to literally cut the headlights open, arrange the orions perfectly, glue them in place and seal the headlight back up good enough that it retains its weatherproofing. There are some people that offer this as a service. In fact, I will be offering it shortly but only to local or "almost" local people. It can be quite a daunting task but the results are unmatched!!!

Also is there only one bulb to light up both rings in each light or is there a smaller bulb that I need to replace for the littler rings closest to the grill? I have put leds in all my other cars and it hasn't been a problem but I just can't figure out which bulbs I need for my 08. Any help would be great!! Thanks
There are about 5 choices that we carry.
$50 ICE LIte = not worth it
$97.50 + resistors ICE V5 (N) = average
$169 + resistors Genesis ICE = decent performance
$225 HID system = too bright on the high beam
$249 Orion V2 = best overall setup.

right, you wouldn't want to do that, but Orion V2 would work

While it is hard to install they are MIND blowing.

NOTHING COMES CLOSE to them as far as reliability, light output and construction.

Your rings will be visible from a half kilometer - They are that DAMN bright.

I would say thats the best mod I ever did
Thank you!
