Thanks Elan; i'm getting halos, so, i don't want the parking light to outshine the halos. With that in mind, which of the 3 bulbs you linked would you recommend?

Also, can you comment on the turn signal one i had posted? If not, can anyone else?

thanks

I just recently got my headlights done and had dual halos installed. They removed the plastic cap where the projector shroud is and shortened it as you are doing. They then inserted a lens and added a halo there. They also replaced the amber bulb that's used for the turn signal because it looks odd through that lens. The problem with having the halo there is that they are SO bright that you in fact need a very bright turn signal bulb so that if you have the halos on the turn signal can actually be seen. I am getting V3 Triton bulbs put in as those are very very bright and can be seen when I am changing lanes. Also the parking light bulb also has that amber bulb look. I am replacing that bulb as well to a clear bulb because I didn't care for the amber section of the lights. You won't really need a bright bulb at all for the parking light, just the turn signal you will. As I mentioned the Triton bulbs are awesome and I would recommend those for sure.
