Yeah those are the gatlins. For the lights no those are the ones I have right now on my tahoe, not my project ones. Those are the black ones I posted.

I thought about doing the lights in the shroud but still deciding.

Do you mean painting the (back half of the shroud) the part after the ------ below that.

Either way, might look cool. Ive seen some cool ones painted, and lighted up like you want to do, behind the shroud, What color would you paint them? you say color match, to the truck? im guessing. Dont remember what lights you have.

Exact same lights i have robert. Why you taken them apart? To change to ccfl? Dont remember if you said or not.

Going to try to bake my lights this weekend.

Yes, going to replace them, and also to get better fitment of the projectors in them. Since the glass part of the light is tinted im going to piant the inside black.

Well tonite, real quick, just baked some factory lights i had, talk about easy, it basically fell apart after baking. But went to put in the mini's, went in alright for the low beam area, the gatlin shroud is a tight fit, the high beam side, is another story, honestly dont think it will fit, think it will hit the lens when i put it back together.

Before that though, the hole on the high beam side is smaller than the low beam, any one have any ideas how to trim it bigger. Dremel it maybe, or get a big drill bit so its a circle hole for the mini? I have pics, but on phone, i'll see if i can post em up. Otherwise, its actually pretty easy so far. Just a few things i need to figure out, all the mounts plates i got for one. Denali ak - do you know what order they go in?

yeah i have the minis, its not the shrouds the projectors may not fit, i have to drill the hole on the high beam more, so the mini does fit. The shroud fits just fine when i place it in there.

For cutting em up, im using some stock headlights right now that i took apart to mock up and such so i dont mess up my new headlights. But put them in last nite just to see and man, so much better already w/ only one and about a foot from the garage. The hard thing might be trying to get halos in the tight spot
