LED headlights with halo

What headlights with halo fit without chopping up the headlight buckets?

Thanks in advance
Ed

Here is some nice projectors with glass lenses. https://www.dapperlighting.com/products/seven I have a pair of the larger ones which required bucket modification (pics in my build thread). If just looking for inexpensive plastic ones there are plenty to be found on amazon and ebay.

Thank you Richard, your build looks great! These are what I’m looking for, do the smaller ones fit without modification?

I had bought a nice set from Summit that said for all classic 7” round, but they required modifying them buckets like you did.

Re: LED headlights with halo

not halo, but I highly recommend Retrobright thru Brothers/Holly, but available from many other distributors. I got mine from Classic Industries. They are literally plug/play, look OEM, as bright as new cars, and come in classic, bright white or amber/yellow light. yes at $200 each they're more than most, but far less than a headlight in a new car, and WELL WORTH the $$$. Classic Industries is currently running up to 20% off, which is how I got mine a few months back.

Cannot say for sure about fit. Noticed a couple of reviews on trucks of our years that did not mention mods. None of the older Chevy vehicle reviewers seemed to mention any serious mods. Want to mention again that these have glass lenses. Not cheap plastic.
