You have the composites. From searching, your only bet is to retrofit some projectors in there, doing that, you can have the halo ring. It can be quite spendy for something that is not really functional, purely for the eyes. maybe someone knows of a different source, but I did many searches and found nothing.

ya thats what i was afraid of. ive found plenty of the 4x6 and the dual style lights and also euro lights but i dont want the euro lights in there if i can avoid it.. i may just put those in there with maybe a 10k bulb or something to at least give it a different color effect. currently in the process of putting a 350 motor in it so i might be able to do some body work too lol

I've never seen a set of the composites that come with halos. As rich said, if you want halos, you'd need to do a projector retro. Or you could do a front end swap for the 98+ front ends. Either way, it's a bit of work.

Cool

Yup, gotta do a retro, or do the front end swap. I for one, say go with the retro., but then again, I just love whoring mine out xD

You can typically get everything to do it for cheaper than the front end swap, of course, that all depends on what you cram into your Retro. I spend 150 on the Euro Clear composites, 10 on paint, and an accumulated 50 on the shroud set up (both sets of rings and "value" panamara shroud). One of the more expensive parts will be the projectors themselves. I got mine for free from a friend for doing come PC work(he was going to put them in his Subaru, but passed on it)
All in all, Its something I had a great time working on, and was a neat learning experience. Plus, the output is FAR superior than any housings you buy for our trucks. As well as proper HID application. Its something I encourage a lot of people to try. And in the end, you'll have something awesome that no one else has
