Looks pretty good frozen-fire. It would be nice to see some wider angle shots with just the halos on if you've got any. Where did you buy them?
I'll try to get on that when possible. I got them new from a member on this board. You can also get them from ebay or other automotive stores.

Lights look good. I have always been a fan of the halos!

I have a question kind of. I was going to purchase those exact lights to replace my oem fogs. On the website it says they are only available in driving beam. This is completely different from a fog light correct? The fog light beam is wider and helps in inclimate weather. The driving light is a very narrow beam that is long range. correct so far? Also, it says those are for off road use only. So, do the driving lamps aid in inclimate weather as well? In pittsburgh it is always very foggy and rainy. Would driving lamps be benificial to me or am i better off sticking with oem and trying to find a brighter bulb?

Yeah, they are really friggin bright. The driving lights are pretty helpful in inclement weather, but not as good as fog lights.

FYI, here are some shots to compare (2003 Galant, Hella Optilux 2500, Sylvania Silverstar bulbs):

Did you get your interior lights from PJAutomotive.com? The reason I am asking is because I wanted to change all my dash lights to blue and I wanted to see them before I get them. Thanks.
At first i got them from PJ, but they were too dim, too blotchy, and my needles wouldn't light up. I then got them from superbrightleds.com, and man, they now look like stock, and i can finally see my needles and the friggin' mileage reading at night.

How hard was it changing your dash lights?
I just got a Sirius Starmate and blue dash lights would match much better than my current stock set up.

Oh...and I just purchased a set of these 2500's.
Can't wait to install them.
I'll post a few pics when I do.

pain in the ass. you have to use nail polish remover to get rid of the amber coating on the back of the gauge after taking everything apart including the needles. when you put things back together, you have to get a buddy to drive around with you with him/her yelling out their speed and you stick the needle back in at that speed. kind of complicated, but there's a lot of work involved. otehr than the gauges, the clockpod, and cubby hole are simple and straightforward. the HVAC was also a pain in the ass, but it's easy once you do it a few times. taking the knobs off and stuff is difficult and if you break both tabs, the knob is screwed. i'm not trying to scare you off, but just saying that it's gonna take a lot of time and patience.
