I need some help
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 5:26 AM
Ive decided that I want to go with a set of one piece halos for the cav but I have a question. I have a 02 and the halos are only for 99 and lower. I know there is a sticky for this but its a lil confusing to me. I know a lot of people go from 99 to 02 but not the other way. Im just wondering how hard is it to do this and what all do I need, I know the hood is good and Ill need a new front bumper but what other things do I need to make this work?



I went from an import to being part of the J-Body nation.

you have to re-wire your headlights since your going from 1 bulb to 2 now and you'll also need the corner bracket for the fenders.

you will need the brackets, and you will also have a sizable gap between your headlights and bumper.

Wiring you will need to seperate the high and low beams....there IS good info on how to do that on this site.

except for the corner lights right? the pegs for the lights go through the bracket and thats how they mount.

The one piece lights incorperate the corners.....however you are still missing an anchor point that will help hold the light steady.

the one peice projector lights with the halos....the signals dont attach to anything behind them there are no knobs or mounting points so the brackets are useless you only mount the lights with the two(2) bolts for the headlight...i will get a pic tomorrow of the whole set up

even though its 1 piece, they still dont have the tabs on the back light the regular corner lights do?

no the one piece only attach at the 2 bolts up top and a little plastic piece that rests against somthing on somthing behind the assembly. on my cardomain i have a how to write up of how you can wire up the lights on a 95-99 but not sure about a newer style.
