So I was looking at getting halo rings, though I really don't want to cut my headlights to install. I decided to look at aftermarket ones and came across these Anzo - Black CCFL Halo Projector Headlights ones, I was curious if anyone had got these and what they thought of them?

Didn't get them for my Challenger, but tried to put a set on my Magnum. I took them off because they didn't give as good lighting as the OEM. Even with 6k bulbs.

I bought a set of aftermarket headlight assemblies to do the exact same thing. They are easier to open then the OEM's and If I end up not liking the Halos over time, I can still swap in my original OEM lights. Only difference is mine are not Anzo, but Eagle Eyes and even though I have installed the rings and done the wiring from inside the car to the front, I have yet to install them on the car.

Too cold to install now, maybe in the Spring.

The guy that did my halos got a set of eagle eyes on ebay. I have no issue with the brightness of the lights, but whether it was the install or the light itself, I have an aiming issue. The beams don't seem to come together in front of the car and there is no horizontal adjustment that I've been able to find.

Theresa, (and any others this might help)

Since I have not installed my Eagle Eyes yet, I pulled them out and took a picture showing the adjustment screws. The screw in the middle is definitely Up and Down, but the other one has no label, but looks like it would work like a Right and Left adjustment. (sorry didn't mean to hi-jack the thread, but seems relevant)

Excellent observation! Now I just need to figure out how to get to that screw after the front end is reassembled!

Did you ever find a way to get to that other adjustment screw?

I installed a set of these Eagle eyes and am also having the same problems with adjustments.

Also the Factory headlamps have a metal coil like spring around the bulb.


Did you install it in the Eagle Eyes? Does not seem to sit in the socket correctly?

So on my 2010 SRT8 that I traded I had a set of the Anzos. I was gonna get the Oracles but didn't have time. My supercharger was gonna get installed a week from the time when I decided I wanted halos. So being that the front end was gonna be off for the supercharger I started looking to see what I could do. I found the Anzos. So I bought them. Had HHP install them while they had the front end off. I also had them run the wires for the fog lights and just leave them hot and tape the ends up for me. I got Oracles for the fogs because they didn't make the housing replacements. I did those myself and they came out great. The Anzos were awesome. I had them all hooded up to a toggle switch. They would not run without the car running. Never wanted to forget to turn them off and kill the battery. The bright white halos looked incredible on a less than sunny day. But that's where it ended.

As far as driving at night. I never liked to do it that much anyway in that car for fear of dear. Well, the Anzos left a lot to be desired in the lighting of the road department. I adjusted them til the cows came home and just could not get them right. I adjusted them so the illuminated the road decently(best I could get...not very good.) With that adjustment the high beams were useless. They were way up in the trees. If I adjusted down to get the high beams to be useful the headlights were pointed at the ground. My original stock headlights lit up the road perfectly. These were not good.

Sorry this was long, to say how they worked, but I didn't want to just say the lighting was not good. To be fair I wanted to make sure you know that the halo part was great. So for me it was worth it because I didn't and don't choose to really drive it at night, if I can help it.
