Count me in on a pair of those Halo's as well if the price is around the $100 range. I still have a few inquiries:

1. would be shipping to Canada?
2. would there be any real difference between installation of USDM headlights and Aristo?
3. If my car is equipped with Daytime Running Lights (DRL's), would I be able to wire it such that it would work in conjunction with that? I currently have a plug-and-play HID Kit, and I just turn on and off the lights instead of leaving it at the AUTO setting when ready so I don't know if these Halo's would run independent of that (i.e. when the vehicle starts up, the Halo's start) or if I would turn them on with my HID's.

1) Yes, we ship to Canada via USPS Priority International. That seems to be the fastest and does not overcharge for duty like UPS.

2) It looks like the diameter of the rings will be the same for both. So yes, one halo kit will fit both lights.

3) These are easiest to tap to your parking lights so you can turn them on and off from the factory headlight switch. The parking light position is just after the off position.

All this sounds great! Do you have an expected timeline for when the prototype should be completed?

Also, I have attempted to "bake" my headlights previously, and let's just say it didn't go to well (Hence why I have aristo headlamps!). Once you have created the halo's would I be able to ship you my headlights, and you install them for me? Do you have a general idea of the cost for that?

Also, if anyone wants to see a video on how to paint your headlights and install the halos:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=328348

For us to do the above process (Halo Installation and Paint) you are looking at $245 paint and labor and comes with a Lifetime Warranty, "Plug and Play"
