HALO headlights
Hey...just a question. I love the halo lights on the BMW 5-series. I was wondering if there was anyway to install then on a 2nd gen or if SharkRacing would be interested in making something of the sort.

The halo effect works because of a small
"city" light on the high beam.
The Korean spec Headlights that you can get from shark racing do have a "city" light in the high beam.
Two quick points before you get excited.
#1. The North American Tiburons are not wired for city lights, so you will have to run the wiring to the headlight connector. Not too hard, but a PITA all the same.
#2. It will not do a "halo" like you are thinking. The BMW lights are MADE that way. When you operate the city light on the high beam, it just lights up the highbeam light a bit, nothing major. It will not do a ring around the light like the BMW.
To get custom lights made to do that would be rather spendy.
