The halos would be cool if they were encased behind glass/clear plastic, keeping the original shape instead of the ugly black frame which even painted still doesnt look great. Thats why I got the clear depo headlights.

^^^Unless they are the Depo projectors, the light output isn't going to be very good.

I used this stuff called micro mesh kr-70 restoration kit. I don't know where to get it cause my friend in the airline industry gave it to me. it has a series of sand paper from 1500 to 6000 sand paper and somemicro gloss liquid abrasive you rub in the last step. it works great, fust take a while.

i got the halos on the r/t and they didnt take any work to fit them in
i know the lighting sux, but i just wanted the looks of them......though i think i will be replacing them after a while for a different style

i just used Brila pads + some type of carquest lens cleaner. lot of work but it got the job done. but now 6 months later its back to the way it was. IMO its not worth clearing the OEM headlights. lot of work and doesn't last very long.
