Cool Turn signal halo's

I just got my Depo's out of the oven, split them & now I'm waiting for my projectors with halos to come in. Pix to come. My question is, has anyone put amber halo's in turn signals?

Not that I've seen, but have you considered matching the headlight halo color?
I just got my projectors, any tips on opening up the depo lights?

It was super easy...
1) Remove light, turn signal, and all rubber pieces
2) Preheat oven to 275
3) Place light on a piece of wood
4) Put in oven for 7 minutes
5) Put on gloves. (I used some Snap on work gloves)
6) Take out of oven, working as quickly as possible, bend little tabs that retain the lens back. They are very pliable now.
7) Using a large screwdriver, start to work your way around the lens, carefully putting the screwdriver in between the lens and the body on the light and twist slightly at first. Working your way around until the lens comes off.
Note: The glue is very stringy, and can make a mess. Be careful, not to get it on your lens.
Good luck Bro

Also for my headlights, the halos (White) that are coming, will go around the projectors.
I just wondered if there is a small amber halo out there, that i could use as a turn signal. The smallest I've found. is 60 mm. I would think that is to large without making new shrouds.

This is the kit I've gotten is

With the halo option... Still waiting for the halos that were backordered.
All the wiring is installed. If you go to the website, there is a lot of info for installers. I know how I'm going to mount them now.
