Looking to buy lights for my halos, sick of the orange! PM or post here if you're looking to sell.

so I know I might get flamed for saying this, but I was in the same boat. I actually bought some $28 Aliexpress cree LED's and they turned out really nice for $28. The inner ring is a bit brighter than the outside ring, but it looks great.
Hasn't affected the adaptable headlights either (no warning lights or codes).
I've only had them on for a few hundred miles so can't say about life or if there are long term repercussions on the headlights themselves.
