Halos come with the RS package.

Since you don't have them, I would suggest ordering some from AAC. They are brighter and cheaper most likely. And they carry a lifetime warranty. Also, you can get colors other than white.

I have the amber on my car and I love them!

You will need to take your headlights out, open them up, and install the halos. Its really easy, its just an intimidating install. All bark no bite

Good luck, it's not as easy an install as some would have you believe.

You have to bake your headlights to soften the vulcanized rubber and then destroy a corner to pry open.

If you have the time, send them in and pay them to do it.

I warpped one of mine during the process. They work well and look good, I just don't drive in the rain anymore. Waiting for it to come apart and will buy a set of eagle eye white halos off ebay for $400.

Those are complete replacements. You take out your OEM headlights and put those in. They work for both RS and non-RS

do you have to take off the front piece to replace or is it easier than that?

You have to remove the entire front end. There is a post on this forum about it somewhere. Just do a search for it.

Don't let the AAC install intimidate you. Me and agkelly will do it for you and you will be happy. It will definitely be less than 400 for the dual color you are looking for. Grab the ones from AAC and come on up and we will do the install for free. We have not cracked or warped a housing. We have this process down pat and we have had no problems with this.
