Hey guys I live on Fox Island, Wa and i have a 1991 Camaro RS and i remember seeing someone in the cascade crew on Thirdgen.org and he had these really awesome headlights and i wanted to know where he got them. they were like blue halo lights.

but any way My name is Luke Miller. I am 17 years old, senior in high school. i have had my camaro for just over a year now, and have put about $3600 into it so far...so here are some pics

in the end of the slideshow you will see i did at one time have halo headlights and they burned out extremely fast cause the halo led's were sealed with hot glue and the bulbs melted the led's, so thats why i wanted to find the guy who has the blue halos, and most of the pics are from when i first had it. there is some stuff that is different, like my new iroc rims that need tires haha

click on pic for slideshow

Welcome to the crew!! Great to see some more young blood interest Razz

Probably izcain's car you saw on TGO, it's in his signature. I'm also running a set of halos, but haven't put any cover over the bulbs to color them. Mine use a pair of 194 bulbs (same as your side markers) in each light to power the halo. I found mine on Amazon, I think e-Bay may have them also - they are Pilot WI-HL12 housings

Get a brand name housing like Pilot atleast. The eBay speschialz suxor.

Nice ride! Come down to Dyno and party!

I need to take some pictures now that I have the 4th Halo housing that works!

Paul's blue looks awesome, but with my purple car, I couldn't make that work, nor could I make the green or red that came with the lights work. I might put in some LED 194 replacements and make it ultraviolet (UV), or hyper white. Here's how they look uncolored

You go to Gig Harbor High? I went to Peninsula. I don't think I've seen your camaro around. Welcome! I live in Gig Harbor and work at a Chevy dealer in Tacoma so if you need a hand with anything give me a shout.

Yea that was probably me since I think I got a pm but never got around to answering it! Embarassed

i PM'd back and yes i do in fact go to gig harbor high scool. and ill definatley hit you up if i need anything...actually now that i think about it how much would it be to have my wheel bearings replaced at a dealer?

iansane · Posted: Wed Dec 03, 2008 10:12 pm Post subject:

So much so for the little work needed that I wouldn't even recommend it. You have any inclination to do it yourself? I have a couple bearing sets at my house and I'd show you how to do it if you want.

izcain · Posted: Wed Dec 03, 2008 10:34 pm Post subject:

Its funny how people like the lights.... I posted up on Thirdgen.org a long long time ago when I was just getting done with the install of mine and everyone picked them apart and hated on me for having them lol. They all told me how stupid I was and how illegal I was being lol

I like that site but sometimes I think the people have really gotten bad there!

91camaro_rs · Posted: Wed Dec 03, 2008 10:41 pm Post subject:

well like 4 months ago i replaced the bearings i had my friends dad help me and look where i am now...in need of new ones...again...so i mean if you wanted to show me how do to it and help me with it that would be tight...but i just wanna make sure they gonna last a lot longer than 4 months

If you dont get them adjusted with the right preload they just g south in a hurry.

I repack mine once a season ( part of my getting ready for the new race season)

Adjusted properly and greased well they will last for a longggg time!
