[digitalscars]

Looking for some new headlights for my 2000 Camry, Really want to get some good halos, chrome to match my clear corners. The only thing is this,

the ones on ebay, are they really good? or just crap. if so anyone know a really trusted place to get halos from, Im really looking for quailty.

thanks,
Justin

the ones on eBay are good, but the halos are not CCFL, they just use 2LEDs on the end.

[digitalscars]

what does CCFL mean, and do you recommend any sites that would sell halos, that are really nice quailty?

CCFL are cold cathode lights, instead of LED's. You see them often in computers, they are similar to neon lights.

A 1996 Camry is a Gen3 Camry, which is alot different then the 1997-2001 Camry's. You cant "easily" replace a 1996 stock headlight unit with one from a 1997 or newer.

Theres really no "purpose" in halos, but to some people they make the headlights look alot sweeter.

And DEPO is a brand, but alot of people refer to them as a type since they are the only company I believe that made clear headlights for the Gen3.

and projectors are?

i assumed they were the piece over the headlights that project the light towards the road to prevent it getting in ppl's eyes, but i dont know for sure ... so i figured i might as well ask

i really dont understand the whole HID scene ... i just know its a lil too bright for my needs

Projectors and halos are completely different, cars with projectors have a glass lens, which im sure you've seen before. They have something installed inside to create a cut-off beam, so it shines mostly on the road, and not up in the sky.

Alot of new luxury cars come equipped with HID's, while alot of cars use halogen projectors, which arent any brighter. HID's are amazing, and I cant wait to get them installed in my car.
