I actually had a local shop install everything for me as my electrical knowledge stops at installing light bulbs :)
I'm fairly certain it's the 70mm, we took a measurement I just can't remember off the top of my head. I also went with diffusers to give the halos a more uniform output. I'm sorry I can't be more help. ..
No worries, I can take a look. Yeah, love the diffusers, the equal spread is nice.

How do you like the light output and colors? How close can you get to white/amber/yellow?

Thanks!

I think all of the colors and outputs for both the DRLs and the angel eyes fogs are terrific, I haven't been disappointed at all. The controller allows you to adjust brightness to your liking also. There is no white for the angel eyes and I knew that going in, but I can still use my actual fog lights.

I you are going to the effort of opening the lights, just blackout the inside and there's no need for tint. The lights will look dark and you lose zero visibility and those nice expensive drls you just installed shine through perfectly.

While you're at it, replace the oem lenses with Clear Lenses.

What do you mean by clear lenses?

The oem lens on the hid projector is a fresnel one that scatters the light more than a true clear lens. It's in large part why there isn't a sharp cutoff line. Some people don't like the cutoff, some pursue it like the perfect exhaust note. :).

[MENTION=9987]Diode Dynamics[/MENTION], do you guys have an angel eyes fog light install guide anywhere?
We don't have a fog light halo installation guide available

However, I can tell you that fog lights typically have to be cut open vs. baking them in an oven. Most professionals will use a dremel to separate the lens from the housing.

do the headlights have to be opened up as well to install or do they "drop in"

It would be close to like 30% tint. It does dim the lights just a TINY bit but nothing really noticeable. The HID/LED are plenty bright for them to not look dimmer! :headbang:
Which tint is that [MENTION=20080]Chris@Lethal[/MENTION]? Is that the Anchor Room light tint?

Yes that is the Anchor Room kit we have installed. It is installed on the headlights, taillights and the mirror markers. Here is a link to all the kits that we offer from Anchor Room. They look awesome and super easy to install!

[MENTION=20080]Chris@Lethal[/MENTION]: Is that the "light" tint or the "standard" one though? I'd like to go standard but am worried about too much light reduction.

We have the standard kit installed on our vehicle, we also run the same kit on our GT350. Since both vehicles come with the HIDs from the factory the standard tints kits aren't too dark at all!
